Ukraine seems now confident enough that Russia will not move forward with an amphib landings in Odessa. Anti tank hedgehogs and other fortified positions has been reduced or removed completely. Likely freeing up manpower for the push towards Kherson.
The Russian navy participation in this phase of conflict would likely be pure fire support. There are at least 3 large warships left in the Black sea fleet that is capable as Kaliber shooters.
Meanwhile russian patrol in the Mediterranean still continues, but it remians to be seen for how long the Russian navy could maintain the ship out at sea for a very long period of time.
I don't think Russian facilities in Tartous are capable enough to do heavy maintenance for the Mediterranean squadron. Which means as the time passes we'll likely see the gradual reduction of Russian navy presence in the Eastern Med.
In Donbass multiple Russian attacks has been stopped, I somewhat believe that Russia will not achieve its May 9 objective of the war.
