The mapped gains look pretty impressive in terms of area, assuming they are accurate.  Shevchenkov looks like it's more than half way from Ukraine's prior position to Kupyansk.  Playing devil's advocate, however, it looks like Ukraine has captured a lot of farmland, which was the type of terrain that seemed to favor Russia in the Donbas battle.  What factors make this battlefield more favorable than the Donbas was for Ukraine?  Is the coming wet season going to prevent Russia from advancing it's artillery as it did in the Donbas?  Are HIMARS enough of a game changer to alter the outcome?
