Cuz that worked so well in Kharkiv, right? By that logic Russia should be taking back that area any day now...

They never even took Kharkiv to begin with. What are you talking about?

That's the name of the city and the oblast, weird how that works. They never fully took it but they tried. We've seen how that went recently.

They took a good half of it or so, then got driven out almost entirely. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_occupation_of_Kharkiv_...

Oh, I assumed you were talking about the city. Since such strategy seems to be more suitable for urban areas.
