This is a very standard Probe and Exploit attacks. Starting on the 8th of September.So what was the operation that started this shift back? Did the Russians just exhaust themselves or did they hit some real barrier that bogged them down enough for the Ukrainians to rally and push the Russians back?
Ukrainian probably have heard or have intel about occupied territories inside and decided to send a probing force and test the line. Russian has been thinning out their unit inside Occupied East and move them south to help defend Kherson.
When the first probing force did not meet any resistance on Balakliya, the Ukrainian force started to explore surrounding area. Then on the next 2 days open up enough fronts to push Russian out of the way, thus taking so much ground.
