Private IPs (as per RFS 1918) cannot be routed over internet.

I understand that IP packets can be spoofed ie change the source
address to make it look like they originated from the internal LAN.
However, when this is done across the internet, with a private IP
address in its source field, how does this packet get routed through
the internet?

Kind Regards
