Why would they give this movement intel away? /Facepalm. Only thing I can think of is that all the recent propaganda from ukraine has been trying to get the Russians to run away from Kherson.
 
Video might be made and then posted later, by the time anyone sees it and finds the location, it's probably "old news".

Also Russia might not be able to geo-locate anything from a video like that.

Pretty hard to hide to movements like this when the enemy has surveillance satellites over you, not unless you have another "dummy" movement somewhere else to confuse the enemy but the logistics of that these days and social media would make it difficult to pull off

Also, that video seems to have been taken so that it doesn't show much in the way of identifiable landmarks, it's basically a tanks going along a dirt track with some woods in the distance/to one side and farmers fields on the other, I suspect there are many possibilities in Ukraine (geolocation tends to be far easier when there are specific landmarks, or you've forgotten to strip the metadata from the photo of video).

The fun bit is it turns out that was filmed weeks or months ago, or even from before the "special military operation" and is being used to force the Russians to waste time trying confirm it matches with the satellite imaging etc.
 
At least the Turkey will be warm for Christmas

Yep there's many reasons to post such videos, also raises morale for Ukrainians to see such a mighty formation on the move and probably worries any Russians who happen to view it
 
I think parts of this video is a good match for OCUK forums and this particular thread (video is only 4mins but you can skip to 1:26 to get to the point I'm making)

Russia: Authorities close down Amnesty International’s Moscow Office

The Russian Ministry of Justice delisted Amnesty International’s Moscow Office from the register of the representative offices of the international organizations and foreign NGOs, effectively closing it down alongside with offices of Human Rights Watch and others.

The Amnesty International report can't be anything but one sided as they have no access inside Russia. A fact that the usual suspects in here will be conveniently ignoring.

I haven't read the report, but given that fact, they report should have a big section at the top that says this report is incomplete because they do not have access to locations on the battlefield and do not have access to anything from the Russian side and acknowledge they are committing war crimes

You love to see that. The army have easily absorbed all provided so far. The US must be loving the demo and testing of all its hardware.

Any publication blaming Ukraine for that should be utterly ashamed for even making that statement.

Yeap, telling everyone that they should hide the truth always is the best policy and never ever comes back to bite you on the bum. Personally I'm amazed AI told the truth in the face of such a huge "never complain about any Ukrainian mistakes" propaganda effort, even if those mistakes rarely happen it appears everyone here would rather lie about it.

I mean we all know Russia is committing all kinds of evil crap and we rightly hold them to account for that, but then you've also got to hold Ukraine to account when they risk civilian lives and if you not only refuse to do that but also want to cover up the truth then you're a hypocrite and a liar who can't be trusted to "tell the truth" ever again.
