The War in the Ukraine

Some speculation people mentioned that it could be related to negotiations. Zelensky has been talking a lot about reaching or talking about a deal before 2024 ends. We already know that the west said they want to improve Ukraine position ahead of negotiations, which the incursion into Kursk could be an attempt to gain leverage. If that is the case, then there may be more Ukrainian attacks coming soon in the future. Depleting their limited resources is hardly going to convince the Russians to negotiate on western terms of surrender.
What's dumb is for over two years Russia has been at war with its neighbor and #2 land army in the world hasn't secured its borders. Worse than that Russian intel wasn't able to detect a Brigaded size army massing on its border.... not to mention #3 air force in the world hasn't been able to secure its airspace, but yes Ukraine is dumb.

Surely there was some sort of plan. Maybe seizing civilian hostages for negotiation? Or push up so they can get in range of the Kursk NPP?
Some had before complained that Syrski is a commander that just attacks and attacks by throwing numbers without regarding defense or the wellbeing of the troops, this whole op does seem to have that sort of name written all over it.
