Operation Matryoshka: Russia's Hidden Front 2026

Directed by Alex Shiriaieff

Russia is already waging a low-intensity war against the countries around the Baltic Sea. But it isn't being fought with conventional weapons. Cyberattacks, disinformation, propaganda targeting Russian-speaking minorities, and sabotage of air traffic and internet cables are part of the strategy, organised and financed by the Kremlin. The aim of these operations is political, social and economic destabilisation, which many experts consider to be preparation for military aggression.
