It seems like they took Kursk without losing much. Now they have a bargaining chip for peace talks and possibly diverted attention away from the main front. The western reporting may also get under Putins skin.

Seems like factions in Kiev are started to tear itself apart, or their government branches does not coordinate to this point, or Uncle Sam’s hand is still squezing them hard enough to force such obvious blunder (or all three in combination).
