👉 Ivankiv in the context of Russian Kyiv convoy

The Russian Kyiv convoy was a column of Russian military vehicles stretching some 64 kilometres (40 mi) in Kyiv Oblast from Prybirsk [uk] to Hostomel via Ivankiv involved in the Russian invasion of Ukraine beginning on 24 February 2022. It initially threatened Kyiv, but then halted for reasons that remain unclear. Commentators have suggested that the large number of soldiers and vehicles may have had issues with fuel and food shortages, and may have also been delayed by attacks from the Ukrainian military.

On 4 March 2022, The Economist declared that the slow pace and seemingly disorganised military formation was representative of Russia's problems in the war in general.

Ivankiv in the context of Teteriv River

The Teteriv (Ukrainian: Тетерiв) is a right tributary of the Dnieper River in Ukraine. It has a length of 365 kilometres (227 mi) and a drainage basin of 15,300 square kilometres (5,900 sq mi).

The Teteriv flows generally in northeastern direction through geographic regions of Podolian Upland, Dnieper Upland, and Polesia. The river starts near a populated place of Nosivky (previously Nosivka) near administrative border with Vinnytsia Oblast at 299 m (981 ft) over the sea level. Flowing through Podolian Upland in some areas it has characteristics of mountainous stream. In the underflow the valley of the Teteriv in Polissia on up to 4 kilometres (2.5 mi), the width of the river widens up to 40-90 meter, before it flows into the Dnieper. The midstream of Teteriv from Zhytomyr to Radomyshl has predominantly rocky banks. Few kilometers east of Radomyshl turns into fully flatland river within Kyiv Oblast. Further east of Ivankiv turns into a swampy wetland. The river drains into the Dnieper in the Kyiv Reservoir just south of the Prypiat river estuary and the Chernobyl exclusion zone.
