@Zeb@Bunsenno they're still on the outskirts as they have been for some time now. And as I've said many times before, Odessa would require a D-day style landing, a massive armada of troop transports, all spotted well in advance of the invasion, in waters that are mined and Ukraine still has some anti ship missiles, also it would be difficult to resupply the troops once they landed.
I don't think Russia is quite ready or willing to do that yet.
