🧵My translation of the analysis of the current situation in Russia by an active FSB analyst. Buckle up for a long thread and definitely please share far & wide. The full text is over 2000 words. This is a highly insightful look behind the curtain – covers many subjects.

I do not have any idea about the veracity of information in this thread, but it nevertheless matches my assessment of Russia’s military and related capabilities. Russia’s forces are less prepared and more unprofessional than I’d thought earlier and that is unfortunately going to be worse — and definitely not better — for Ukraine. It’s going to lead to more indiscrimate shelling, slaughter and mayhem.
Possibly another Chechnya.
