Don't know what to make of the retreat from Kherson

 I don't know what to make of the retreat from Kherson.

On one hand we've been seeing the run-up to this for weeks.  I'm sure everyone saw the concrete bunkers being shipped to the opposite bank.  Additionally we've seen bridge after bridge dropped into the river.

What we haven't seen is a concerted push to take the town and pummel the Russians.

I imagine that the Ukrainians decided there was no need.  Simply sit back and bombard them from distance.

Long story short?

The best I can come up with is that they're setting the stage for the winter campaign and are simply falling back to more defensible positions while the weather is somewhat favorable.

What do ya'll think?
