I seem to remember reading that Soviet and Russian troop movements traditionally used the railroads, so it seems safe to assume that Russia has little experience moving large amounts of troops using roads. The repeated loss of vehicle columns seems to confirm Russia is not going to be able to move, much less counter attack, in the area. Ukraine has truly gut punch the bear.
It's nice to think that with Crimea being taken from them, Ukraine now has an equally important location for Russia in Sudzha. Seems like a fair trade in the future!
