It continues tracing the route to northern Ukraine again.

Wouldn’t it be interesting if this entire exercise is just a Russian intelligence-recon in force, transporting and deploying forces, sending out signals-communications, and making diplomatic overtures, just to get the west to activate its intel assets, thus revealing their capabilities?
If they are doing an exercise, they will be ready for the real thing if needed. They tested supply chain, forward base, looked at Nato forces satellites coverages and passing and tested the water for who will go in for blood. It's a giant operation and if they do that each january for 2 or 3 years they will make them sleep if they want to do it for real.
Also looks like they may have built a bridge to cross the Pripyat river in Belarus 4 miles from the Ukrainian border. Still a chance of invasion.
Using this route as the main route to Kiev is idiotic. From Belarus it is even closer to Kiev, this is undeniable. But it's a swampy area that's difficult to maneuver and will definitely have mud for vehicles and tanks to get stuck in, that will delay the attack.
Not to mention that this bridge could easily be destroyed if Ukraine detects movement in that direction, given the level of NATO intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance resources in Ukraine, I am sure that this would be detected and Ukraine would react even if it was in the territory. Belarusian - Destroying the bridge as well as the main road leading to Kiev would delay any targeted attack on the country's capital and the Russians will not have the supplies to advance and reach the objective of capturing Kiev as logistical support trucks will not be able to reach the forces main attack by either way.
Using only historical reference, the Soviet Union managed to carry out a tank attack against German forces through the Pripyat swamps during World War II.
Billions of Dollar Losses: How Ukraine Suffered Due to Preparations for the Imaginary Invasion of the Russian Federation
Oligarchs and officials fled Nezalezhnaya along with uninsured planes, the hryvnia exchange rate collapsed. But that is not all.
At a time when Ukraine was already preparing for a mythical invasion, and the Western media came to declare war, Russian troops went to their units. Thus, having completed the planned exercises in Crimea and Belarus.
Not at all the image that the West has been waiting for so long and hysterically, each day naming more and more new dates for the so-called “Russian invasion of Ukraine”. Tanks from units from the Southern Military District are loaded onto railway platforms after exercises in Crimea and sent home. The barrels of your weapons are sheathed, this is clearly visible. And the commander of the T-72B3 tank is happy that after the exercises he is going home to his wife and children. However, his unity would not even follow a different path.
The Ministry of Defense emphasizes that carrying out large-scale exercises with the participation of all types and branches of the Armed Forces - on land, in the air and even underwater, on the territory of Russia - is a sovereign right of our State. . Yes, the “Allied Resolve” combat training stage that took place on the territory of Belarus was also carried out in accordance with all the norms of international treaties, under the supervision of foreign attaches. Now that all combat readiness checks have passed, we should return to our units, this is not uncommon either.
In this situation, Ukraine suffered the most, becoming, in effect, a bargaining chip in the next game of western cheaters. $12.5 billion was withdrawn from the country amid the panic, according to President Zelensky. Oligarchs and officials fled along with planes without insurance, the hryvnia exchange rate has collapsed, the attractiveness of investment is at zero. After all, you're not going to pay your pensions with Canadian cartridges or Estonian gas masks, are you? This is what happens when you flirt too much with a NATO member that no one thought to make you.
However, of course, it is still too early to talk about global détente. Many experts see the risks of political turmoil in Ukraine. Until the activation of nationalist forces and their armed provocations in Donbass.
The attack, it seems, was just informational - and from the West itself. Georgy Grivenny tried to figure out what journalists and politicians would now compose.
I would say no. The Russians are already well aware of NATO's capability, routinely intercepting NATO ISTAR-capable aircraft and drones near Russian airspace is routinely done, and the opposite also occurs.
