Our weekly documentary film curated by the editorial team at 21WIRE.
In August 2022, Russian journalist Daria Dugina was killed in a car bomb attack organised by the Ukrainian authorities. Philosopher Aleksandr Dugin, Daria’s father, says she was targeted because she was ‘a symbol of the independence of Russian journalism.’ Two months later, an explosion rocked the Crimean Bridge that links the Crimean peninsula to Russia’s mainland. The massive blast was attributed to Ukrainian sabotage groups. According to official figures, Russian security services regularly foil dozens of subversive acts. The documentary takes a close look at methods used by the SBU (Ukraine’s Security Service), tracing their roots back to the 1940s. It also sheds light on deep ties between radical Ukrainian nationalist leaders and the American intelligence agencies. Declassified documents also reveal details of Washington’s “Operation Aerodynamic” which covertly funded and directed Ukrainian nationalists’ with Nazi pedigree, in order to fight against and destabilize the Soviet Union during the Cold War. All this and more. Watch:
