Finland has bunkers against Russia and they are well prepared. Maybe Ukraine could get help from the EU to build new things underground where hits by Russian drones and missiles would just be hitting the ground?
Air intake would always be vulnerable, so no. Not really as a long term thing.
Bunkers are useful for surviving the initial attack, but not long term.
They would hit other critical structures not yet under ground. Power lines, water treatment plants, power plants, etc. You can’t bury everything.

They are already doing that.
It does help. It’s one of the reasons the US is having such trouble with Iran. They spent 40 years putting important facilities 40+ feet underground. Which everyone knew before hand… Accept Rump 🙄
Building underground is very expensive and not even feasible everywhere. Going underground probably wouldn’t survive any normal assesment of cost versus risk. Not even Finland is yet 100% mole people.
Some finnish requirements were put in law after the wars. Ukraine could do something like that fresh out of the war, but good luck selling the idea to a country deep in peacetime.
Some things, like powerlines also need protection from the nature itself, but that’s a separate concern and now I’m derailed, looking for a problem for this solution.
They they build Bigger bombs.
They they need to deliver them.
Bombardment! Bombardment!

It might help. But, in addition to being generally unpleasant, it’s also quite challenging to build things underground and also very dangerous to live underground. What if a bombardment or natural disaster caused the ceiling to collapse? Or blocked one of the many vents that would be required for air circulation?
