As predicted, a truck phobia has now begun in russia – massive traffic jams have hit the Irkutsk region, and every cargo truck is being inspected.
Recently, I explained why Ukraine chose to publicly disclose so much information about Operation “Spiderweb.” By revealing how the operation was executed – including the use of concealed drones inside decoy trucks driven across 5,000 kilometers of russian territory – Ukraine imposed both psychological and economic costs on russia.
Now, every russian cargo truck is a potential threat. Every driver is a suspect. As a result, russian authorities are being forced to:
Divert resources to inspect and monitor domestic transport routes
Increase surveillance and internal security across tens of thousands of kilometers of highways
Slow down military and civilian logistics nationwide
Mistrust their own citizens – especially private drivers and contractors – fueling paranoia and bottlenecks
And today, we’re already seeing this in action.
Russia is panicking. It’s halting trucks, blocking roads, and launching a full-scale clampdown on logistics out of fear that another drone attack might be hiding in plain sight.
This is a major blow to the russian economy.
