Putin positively wanted war to continue, his initiative immediately gave war commander to Russian military." 

Ukraine is still hooting again on Russia oil & their plants beyond 15% oil downing prices. Beyond this, if ceasefire can hold. Ukraine can hit Moscow...cow, as Ukraine is building more 3,000 k/m drones missiles to strike beyond Moscow.

With Ukraine advances securing key positions west of Pokrovsk, Ukrainian forces are now entering next phase of their counteroffensive. As elite assault units push deeper into Russian-held territory, town of Shevchenko become focal point of intense fighting, outcome can reshape entire battlefield. Following meeting between Trump & Putin, Russia agreed to a ceasefire in the air, halting strikes on energy infrastructure, military assets. However Putin denied ceasefire on the ground, Ukrainians are increasing pressure on frontlines to force Russian leadership to reconsider their choices.
The primary objective of Ukrainians in this area is to completely eliminate the Russian pincer on western flank of Pokrovsk. After Russians failed to take Pokrovsk into the pocket, they depleted their offensive capabilitiesas months of fighting had left Russian soldiers exhausted & unable to maintain the pressure. Ukrainians intend to exploit this weakness & push Russians from Pokrovsk, & not allowing Russians to recuperate & prepare for a renewed offensive effort on Pokrovsk. To push they out of this area, Ukrainians initiated 2nd stage of their counteroffensive. 

The 1st stage Ukrainians to establish control of frontline settlements, like
Kotlyne, Pischane, and Uspenivka, as well as retake key defensive positions on higher elevations, thereby dismantling immediate threat posed by Russian western pincer. With Russian defenses breached, Ukrainians now focus on Shevchenko, a strategically vital town & last Russian foothold from here they can restart their assaults on Pokrovsk. We take looking @topographic map, we see Shevchenko is also the last remaining Russian foothold on high-ground plateau around Pokrovsk. Securing Shevchenko can give Ukrainians complete control of this area, creating a so-called fortress Pokrovsk on high ground. Additionally, from high ground, Ukrainians would gain fire control over Russian ground lines of communication of Russian western pincer in the lowlands. This would be the nail in to coffin for Russian efforts here, enabling a swift Ukrainian advance to reclaim this area.
