Top Secret documents detailing the state of readiness of Ukraine’s forces as well as detailed planning information around equipment inflow, weather, ammunition expenditure, training and much more have been circulating on Telegram and Twitter.
The documents titled "Russia / Ukraine | Status of the Conflict as of 1 Mar" appears to be a daily briefing document with a classification higher than top secret, giving clues to the sources of the information within it, and a caveat of "NOFORN," which means No Foreign Dissemination, so for US eyes only.
Some of the pages have lesser classifications and are designed for release to Ukraine.
The detail contained could be useful to the Russians, as there are two things related to any Ukrainian counteroffensive that the Russians need to know.
The first is: when will Ukrainian forces be ready?
And this document gives very clear indications as to when that would be. However, it doesn't say what the second factor could be, the where? That is a closely held secret inside the Ukrainian military planning staff.
However, there is more than one version of the document circulating, and this gives the suspicion that one version at least could be disinformation.

Significant Wagner Advance in Central Bakhmut

Reminds me of the movie “The Man Who Never Was” about how the Allies tricked the Germans about the landing site for D-Day.==
Allies had only staging area for this advance so they could change a landing sites on a run.. So Germans could be tricked until last moment.
But Ukraine front is about 1,000 miles and Russians see clear where ukie forces are staging now. Actually they continue bombardments nonstop along a front line behind it exactly trying to get those preparing forces. So I doubt Russians can be tricked here.
Russians say that this disposition looks like 1943 Kursk battle. Similar way there were nazi forces preparing for summer advances with hundreds of new tanks and lot of new infantries. SO soviet came to defense at first and exhausted nazies in resistance battle then tuned to advance.
Makes me wonder if it might have been sabotage by our secret service to finish the war, very sneaky folks
sky news isn’t a good info source for these docs..
here’s about 2 hours of panel discussions that review them in detail with wyatt at dpa

I watched that movie on late night TV back in the 1980’s. Really an interesting story.
In a bit of a digression, I have heard that Ukraine is getting good use out of inflatable tanks (and other weapons e.g. HIMARS)
