Funny thing is I've talked to a friend of mine about this possibility 3 weeks ago. The Dnieper river flows through Ukraine and down to the Crimean peninsula. Before all this started, the Ukrainian government has shut off the majority of the fresh water flowing down to Crimea, therefore making it very difficult for the people living there to get fresh water flowing. Russia has truck in lots of fresh drinking water just enough to sustain the people in Crimea but they can't grow any crops. So definitely Russia would want to at least control that river and put the current Kiev government or regime out of business.
Oh, I think it will go way beyond that. Remember how the US wanted Zelenskyy to move to Lviv? Russia can easily block all other accesses than the border of Ukraine with Poland. Russia have troop access to Belarus, Russia (obviously), Crimea, and Transnistria. The Black Sea fleet is on the sea. It wouldn't take much for Russia to bottle Ukraine in if they wanted. These guys probably won't escape.

Odessa is right next to Moldova, if true, that would hint at Russia taking all of Ukraine and not just the eastern part.
