This is pretty textbook what seems to be happening and I agree with most of what he is saying. Only one major difference so far.
If you look at the first image the town of Snihurivka is the key stone of the Russian defensive lines and there are now unconfirmed reports that Ukrainian forces are in the city. This would break the spine of their defensive line. A route ensues as Russian's will flee towards the city proper and coast where they'll be trapped.

The Russian officer staff seem to be I’ll equipped to fight conventional warfare. The Ukrainian battle tactics are taught at every war college on the planet. I don’t assume the Russian general staff is untrained so I must assume that they are miscalculating morale amongst the troops.
