European journalists from Danwatch and Der Spiegel have gained access to a massive collection of 2 million documents detailing Russia's strategic nuclear facilities.
Among them are detailed sketches of the top-secret base in Yasny, where Avangard missiles are stationed, including everything from toilet locations and tunnel maps to security systems and surveillance cameras.
The documents revealed construction plans, tunnel diagrams, IT systems, security plans and alarm schemes.
The secret documents also contain details down to lists of sports equipment, wall posters and soldiers' leisure activities, as well as critical information revealing structural weaknesses.
This appears to be the largest intelligence leak in the history of the Russian military. Every foreign intelligence service now has enough material to identify weak points. Toilets, motion sensors, tunnel routes, gym equipment, while journalists now have CIA-level access. It's a security disaster that the Kremlin won't be able to cover up.
The consequences could force Russia to rebuild parts of its nuclear infrastructure from scratch, potentially costing billions of dollars.
The leak occurred through state procurement tenders, where contractors accidentally posted classified files online. Russia's Defense Ministry has not commented on the incident.
