5. I don't expect the Ukranians to cross the Dnieper River.

The next obvious move would be to push south from Zaporizhzhia Oblast towards one or several of Mariupol, Berdiansk, and/or Melitpol. That would cut the Russian land bridge to eastern Kherson Oblast, and force them to supply through the bridge across the Kerch Straight... a bridge which has questionable structural integrity after last month's attack on it.

Alternatively Ukraine could push east from Kharkiv Oblast in an attempt to liberate Luhansk Oblast.
