100% agree.

This is exactly what they are doing and they are stepping them up.

Why?

Why now?

Becomes the question.

Russia blames Ukrainian ‘terrorists’ after reports of fighting near Ukraine border

"Kyiv dismisses reports as ‘false flag’ attack launched by Russia to discredit Ukrainian armed forces."

(Now they are actually saying what they knew as far back as the drone attack on the air base outside of Moscow.)

"The Kremlin claimed Russia had been attacked by “terrorists” after conflicting reports of firefights emerged from the Bryansk and Kursk regions, which Russian media blamed on Ukrainian “sabotage groups” and Ukrainian sources called a “provocation”."

(Provocation = False Flag event.)

The reports of the attack set off a flurry of activity in the Kremlin and at Russia’s security services. Russia’s FSB security service claimed it had launched an operation “to destroy armed Ukrainian nationalists who violated the state border”.

(Thats not the military BTW... Russian FSB)

"Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said the president, Vladimir Putin, would plan to hold a meeting of the security council, Russia’s main military decision-making body, on Friday. Peskov said he had also cancelled a trip to Stavropol."

"Mykhailo Podolyak, a Ukrainian presidential adviser. “[Russia] wants to scare its people to justify the attack on another country and the growing poverty after the year of war."

(They are going to use these events to justify what they were always gonna do in the first place. They aren't really concerned about any "growing poverty".)

Russia on alert after reconnaissance group crosses over from Ukraine

"But Ukraine’s armed forces have recently claimed that Russia was preparing “provocations” in the border area where the incident on Thursday allegedly occurred."

"Experts are concerned that the response from Putin, a former KGB agent, could be harsh because the FSB is the responsible authority tasked with a response to such an incident."

"Putin trusted the FSB more than the defence ministry and the response tactics would be different, said Tatyana Stanovaya, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, in her Telegram channel. “Something serious is being prepared — they will answer.”

Etc., etc., etc...
