The CIA is using a European NATO ally’s spy service to conduct a covert sabotage campaign inside Russia under the agency’s direction, according to former U.S. intelligence and military officials.

What did they really achieve, even if remotely successful... nothing. Zelensky needs to go. New guy needs to negotiate fast

someone invaded you country, would you then say your leader needs to negotiate to take some of it and leave some of it?
only a russian anon would suggest that

Kill enough ground crew or enough aircraft maintainers and those planes are flying a lot less.

so something was accomplished by killing 3 Russians. those Russians helped planes fire KH101 cruise missiles that killed numerous people in the Ukraine.
