The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has warned about new threats to national security related to Russian plans to use internal protests to undermine Ukrainian resistance to aggression.
According to the HUR, Russian special services and the Kremlin's propaganda apparatus are conducting an in-depth study of the situation in Ukraine in order to use protests to weaken the Ukrainian state in its confrontation with Russian aggression.
Strategies and plans of Russia
According to military intelligence assessments, the Russian aggressor plans to discredit Ukraine on an international level to prevent support in the fight against the invasion. On the domestic front, Moscow is developing strategies to use public discontent to exacerbate the situation.
Russia's actions are aimed at increasing protests, deepening polarization and chaos in Ukrainian society to undermine the state's resilience in the context of genocidal war. Citizens are urged to be prudent in their decisions and actions to prevent Russia from carrying out its criminal intentions.
It is important for Ukrainians to be attentive and cautious in the situation with speculations and manipulations of social sentiments to prevent possible escalations of the conflict and destabilization of the country. It is necessary to remember the internal and external threats to national security and to observe appropriate precautions and safety measures.
