Three Bases, One Mystery: Unknown Sites Emerge in Russia and Crimea

Three similar military facilities appeared in Russia at the same time—and their purpose remains a mystery.

This was reported by analyst HI Sutton, who collected available data from satellite images.

These are three locations: temporarily occupied Crimea, the Lake Ladoga area, and the White Sea coast in the Arkhangelsk region. All of these facilities began construction at about the same time — in 2022 — and have a similar appearance.

In Crimea, the base was deployed on the site of a former nuclear weapons depot near the village of Krasnokamyanka. It consisted of several large inflatable hangars, containers connected by cables or pipes, and fortified structures.

A similar complex was spotted near St. Petersburg, near Lake Ladoga, on the territory of an old tank training ground. There are also hangars and fortified areas there.

The third facility was built at the Nenoksa test site in the Arkhangelsk region, where the Burevestnik missile was previously tested.

All three bases have common features: double perimeter security, lightning protection, and a similar building structure. At the same time, there is almost no visible personnel activity, and no usual infrastructure for warehouses or military units.

Analysts are not yet ready to say exactly what these facilities are intended for. But their appearance in several places and strategic territories raises serious questions.

Recall that Russia is massively building infrastructure in the occupied territories of Ukraine, integrating them into its economy and providing war logistics.

As reported, agents of the partisan movement “ATESH” recorded the construction of a new occupier base in the Zaporizhzhia region.
