Why would anyone announce that they are attacking? It makes no sense. This sounds more like a propaganda piece to boost morale after the defeats at Mariupol and Donbas.
That’s definitely propaganda piece to boost morale and show their weapon dealers from EU and USA they are doing something so send more guns pls, but announcing offensives are actually pretty common through industrialized warfare history. It’s usually announced a day or few after it starts, and without details, because enemies can usually notice they are being attacked even without press announcement.
