They didn't liberate ~~Kyiv~~ Kherson quickly last summer. They spent months setting the stage with slow progress and then finally broke through.

The same thing is going on now, except the Russians had a year to dig in this time.

Why do people not understand why Ukraine can't just bulldoze Russia out in a month?
