Assumptions make an ASS out of U & ME
Russia
As of 2014, Russia possessed 220 launchers.[43] Russian missile systems have been upgraded since 2004 (replacing the onboard automated control systems) and were scheduled to be replaced by the 9K720 Iskander missiles. The Russian TASS agency reported that they had all been replaced by Iskander systems by late 2019. During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, it is assumed that Tochka-U launchers have been returned to service; this was denied by the Russian government.
Ukraine
According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, as of April 2022, Ukraine possess 38-90 Tochka missile launchers and several hundred missiles. The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) states that Ukraine has 500 Tochka-U missiles in its arsenal in 2022. Globalsecurity claims that Ukraine owns 90 SS-21 Scarab (Tochka-U) launchers in 2022, the same amount it had in 1995.

Yas. Why would Russia put them back into service when they have better and newer replacement missiles?
