"......a hacker Telegram channel dubbed ‘Beregini’ published the action plan
of the
Information and Psychological Operations Department of the Armed
Forces of Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces (SSO). According to
official information, the tasks of this unit include working with the
population of foreign countries, creating agent networks, and
infiltrating special services and military organizations to conduct
espionage and destroy people who pose a threat to the Ukrainian
government (including in other countries), as well as preparing coups
and the overthrow of regimes. The SSO plan was prepared back in
2017, and this is just one of many similar secret documents created by
Ukrainian spooks. It was just one that became public. But the presence
of these plans and the real political and military steps taken by
Ukraine, which coincide with SSO programs to a surprising extent,
indicate that KI’ve has been actively carrying out anti-Russian
activities since at least 2014, when a Western-backed coup took place in
the country.
When studying the Ukrainian plan from 2017, the first thing that
catches the eye is the variety of operations aimed at creating a split
in Russian society.Operation ‘Zaslon’ describes a scheme to
influence the family members of Donbass soldiers and militiamen, as well
as Russian army personnel. The operation’s main goals include blocking
military units and encouraging desertion and resignations in the
militaries of ‘Eastern,’ the document’s code word for Russia and the
Donbass republics."After the outbreak of hostilities, Operation ‘Steppe Wind’ was
activated. As stated in the SSO documents, its task is to demoralize the
enemy and create tension between the Russian military and DPR and LPR
fighters. According to Oleg Matveichev, a professor at the Higher School
of Economics, “in fact, there are about 80,000 accounts maintained
by Ukrainian students [on the Russian-language internet], but they
pretend to be locals: ‘ordinary residents’ of Penza, Kurgan, Chita, and
Khabarovsk.” RT
