Major edit to focus the question. "Are they credible?" is an opinion. Focus on whether they are authentic. Drop questions asking for them to be interpreted. That's for a different forum.

Are these allegedly Russian maps andcaptured Russian plans of the Ukranian invasion shown in this tweet credibleto invade Ukraine?

This tweet from a pro Pro-Ukranian source has posted picturesUkrainian twitter user, below@TruthsUnchained, that allegedly are premeditated plans of the Russian invasion.tweeted:

#BREAKING 📰

Russian battle plans captured, likely from one of the command vehicles captured.

Battle plans were approved on January 18th and called for a 15 day war to take over Ukraine

One Two Three Four

Apparently, they were approved on the 18th of January (first picture, in the stamp) and called for a 15 day war to successfully invade the country in 15 days. The tweet's authortweet has been active since 2017, posted 3000 tweets before, and has 17k followersretweeted over 130 times.

I (and I suspect many others) would be interested to know ifIs the claim that these are genuine. I don't speak either Russian or Ukranian, do not read Cyrillic, and, as a lifelong pacifist who is deeply saddened by this utter waste of human life and shamefulauthentic plans from the Russian aggression, I know nothing of military operations.

I do however know that NATO has its own symbology for military maps and to aid battle planning, and thattrue? Do the maps shown below are consistent and look to be relatively professionally constructed, atcontents of the very least.

Therefore, I would like to ask:

  1. What do the documents actually say? Does it corroborate the tweet's claim?
  2. Is there a Russian military symbology, similar to NATO? What do the symbols mean?
  3. Is this evidence that the whole thing was planned from the start, intended to begin on the 20th of February?

One Two Three Fourdocument match the claim?
