They probably released it because the situation has changed in a way that makes the information irrelevant, probably because it's in the past, or knowing it could somehow damage the enemy. Any communication from a country at war should be treated as propaganda. Or, they know Russia will treat this as misinformation, so they are free to tell the truth.
plenty of drone teams release geolocated videos day after they happen, but in this case i'll guess that real sauce is classified top secret, that thing is outdated info and everyone is five steps ahead
