SID and DIA Collaborate Virtually on Russian Targets

SUMMARY

An "outstanding" DIA analyst finds valuable SIGINT leads on Russian underground facilities by combing open-source literature like "newspapers, government decrees, and obscure websites." This sort of research may have helped identify the government organizations responsible for managing a long-studied underground facility at Yamantau Mountain in Russia's Ural Mountains.
