Looking on the maps there don't seem to be a whole lot of roads in that area in general, so Ukraine can relatively easily monitor the routes that Russia would have to take. Might've been also part of why they choose to go in there specifically. The big failure here is Russia's initial defense of those areas & routes. They were likely completely banking on Ukraine not daring to actually launch a proper offensive into Russia.
