I’m pretty sure things are proceeding, if not perfectly, then at least within expectations. They’re attacking at multiple locations, forcing Russians to respond with reserves. Whenever the reserves move to one location, the attacks at the other locations pick up, forcing the reserves to move again, weakening other areas, where the pressure picks up again. Each location is only inching forward (if “kilometers gained” counts as inching) but the point is to stretch the Russian logistics and morale to the breaking point. And eventually it will break.
