A chessplayer asks himself two questions all the time:
What is his threat to me? What threat can I make against him?
Threats must not materialise their object, nevertheless they force the enemy to react to them.
Also, its about getting into the command cycle of the enemy, and forcing more decisions on him than he can process in his military infrastructure. You overload his comms systems, his planning instances, you keep his feet busy and do not allow him to take a solid stand, or get rest. I assume this is where the Ukrainians have clear superiority over the Russians.
