A secret complex of biological laboratories has been discovered in the Tver Region of the Russian Federation, where Russians are conducting experiments with dangerous viruses and pathogens.
Andrii Cherniak, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate (DIU), spoke about this in an interview with the Kyiv Post, according to Ukrinform.
According to him, new, state-of-the-art laboratories with enhanced security measures for working with biological samples and chemical substances were built on the site of an old complex on a separate island, where “unauthorized persons” have no access.
“Officially, the facility studies diseases of domestic animals—brucellosis, tuberculosis, and other bacterial and viral diseases. However, in May, the FMBA [Federal Medical-Biological Agency of Russia] began searching for a lab technician to work on the island, whose duties explicitly include working with pathogenic biological agents of Groups I–IV. “According to the Russian classification, Group I includes agents that cause particularly dangerous and deadly infections that are easily and rapidly transmitted from person to person,” Chernyak said.
According to him, the facility is guarded at the highest level. Its security is ensured by units of the Federal Security Service and the Federal Guard Service, an entire military garrison, as well as anti-aircraft systems and electronic warfare equipment.
