At the beginning of the war they were fighting on three as Russia attempted a northern attack from Belarus directly at Kyiv, which they successfully defending against. The current theater has an Eastern front and a Southern Front. The Southern front includes Kherson Oblast, Mykolaiv Oblast, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, and Donetsk Oblast. Kherson Oblast is currently partially occupied by the Russian Army and is the Oblast with a land connection to Crimea.
