Quote: "In times of war, there are no insignificant details – everything matters. A report published without approval can serve as a source of valuable coordinates for the enemy. An unrestrained comment can become an object of reconnaissance. Excessive publication can lead to strikes and losses".

The video tells the story of a fictional report from a company that manufactures drones. According to the plot, after this video aired on television, the enemy obtained information needed for a strike that resulted in the destruction of the production facility and many casualties.

"Everyone who works with sensitive information must act responsibly and adhere to information security rules. This video is a reminder for every journalist, military person, activist, or official: silence is also a weapon. The enemy is listening! Stay vigilant!", emphasized the General Staff.
