Document Text:
ALERT: Possible dimensional breach at Mt. Yamantau exclusion zone
SUMMARY:
On 2 June, terrorists detonated a stolen American “Green Light nuke” at the summit of Mt. Yamantau, burying a KGB experimental research facility beneath an irradiated avalanche. Within 24 hours of this tragedy, a special Decon Company of Chemical Warfare Troops arrived, under the command of Lt. Pavel Agapov. They have spent 2 weeks maintaining an exclusion zone around the site, assessing damage to the facility and retrieving anything worth salvaging.
This morning at 03:17 hours Agapov sent a distress call. Transcript as follows:
AGAPOV: This is Lieutenant Agapov with the Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Protection unit at what is left of Mt. Yamantau facility. Require emergency assistance, over?
HQ: Agapov, this is NCB Directorate. What emergency? Over.
AGAPOV: We think it was an explosive. Or bioweapon. Or both. I heard a thunderclap, then some of my men began to wither and howl. At first, I thought it was radiation sickness…
HQ: You are requesting med-evac? Decontamination supplies? Please specify.
[Background audio: animalistic groans and growls growing louder]
AGAPOV: Nyet! I am asking for help! Scramble a biowarfare response unit! Heavily armed!
[Background audio: automatic gunfire, then transmission is cut]
This transmission was immediately flagged for the attention of Omega Group. The situation is ongoing and considered classified until it is properly resolved.
