Quote: "In wartime, nothing is insignificant – everything matters. A single report made without approval can become a source of coordinates for the enemy. An uncontrolled comment can be a target for intelligence. An unnecessary publication can lead to strikes and casualties."
The video narrates a fictional report from a civilian enterprise that manufactures drones. According to the plot, after this video was aired on television, the enemy acquired intelligence for a strike that resulted in the destruction of the facility and numerous casualties.
"Everyone who works with sensitive information must act responsibly and adhere to information security regulations. This video serves as a reminder for every journalist, military member, public figure, or official: silence is also a weapon. The enemy is listening! Stay alert!", emphasized the General Staff.
