Perhaps west of the Dnieper River. Considering Russia hasn’t announced the goals of their invasion, i would bet we could cover the city of Dnipro.

Dnipro is probably the goal of this reduced Russian offensive. It would put all of the Donbas in Russian hands, cripple Ukraine economically, and Putin could convincingly state that he won. It’s over 100ish miles from the current fighting though.
