Another update in the #Moscowsecrets project. Today, @CKABUSK and @OSINTJOURNO were able to place a missing puzzle piece from the archive in the correct location on the map.
This is part of the secret escape tunnels constructed deep underground in the 1960s, leading from the Kremlin complex to the north in Moscow.
This clarifies the primary eastern and northern escape tunnel route from the Kremlin dating back to the 1960s but still in use.
Thanks to all crew of 703 bunker for their archival valuable work and thanks to all local people assisting.

In this update of #Moscowsecrets, we showcase one of the entrances to the underground water drainage tunnels that also provides access to the underground public and secret metro systems: Fountain Vitali (Фонтан Витали).
The distance to the outer walls of the Kremlin is only 400 m
This is not merely an assumption or a wild guess. We possess several video recordings in which the so-called 'Moscow diggers' enter Moscow's extensive underground infrastructure through this fountain, and we have successfully traced these images back to this exact fountain.
The fountain is also visible in old photos from the 1930s. It is plausible that the additional underground 'passageways' have emerged over the course of the past decades through further excavation work.
Update 3 in the search by @CKABUSK and @OSINTJOURNO for the Kremlin air vents/ventilation channels and hidden entrances/exits with the visual results of a local visit.
This update has a HIGHLY SURPRISING UNEXPECTED TWIST at the end (scroll to the last post for the surprise!)
We have now discovered not just 1 but 2 serious ventilation channels, the connection of which to the amphitheater or the secret escape tunnels and bunkers at the Kremlin is not yet clear, but these exact locations are at least very suspicious.
We have also come across various hatches in the park in locations that might be related to the underground water drainage.
1/ Another episode of #Moscowsecrets by @OSINTJOURNO and @CKABUSK. Earlier, we reported on the bunkers and escape tunnels (commonly referred to as Metro-2) of the Kremlin. Today: highly rare and unique photos taken at that location. Likely one of the few ever taken there.

1/ As part of the #Moscowsecrets project by @OSINTJOURNO and @CKABUSK, an update on the situation is provided.
It appears that the dead-end section of the railway track adjacent to the Ministry of Defense, as of 2023, is no longer utilized as a shelter

2/ Photos by Александр «Russos» Попов demonstrate that the dead-end track has been decommissioned.
Here are all the detailed photos of the underground location including surrounding photo's of the servicebranche/sidetrack.

This bunker, along with a private metro station, is located approximately 5 kilometers southeast of the Kremlin and has been there since the 1960s.
A remarkable discovery and proof that the stories about private metro stations in Moscow are true.
#Metro2
While examining the technical metro route map, we noticed a branching in line 1 that does NOT lead to a station.
Guess what? That branching leads to a special underground private platform where a metro train can stop to take people to the underground bunker.
The bunker has been there since 1956-1958, beneath this building, far from the Kremlin (5 km), yet fully accessible underground from the Kremlin through a special branch of metro line 1 and a separate secret metro station.

#Moscowsecrets
Some some more Moscow secrets to share. @ckabusk and I just georeferenced another drawing of the Kremlin D6 special branch line (some call it Metro 2) showing the escape tunnels that were constructed for the Kremlin to use in case of emergency.
The D6 special branch escape tunnel from the Kremlin emerges beneath the current building of the Federal Security Service.
The depth of these escape tunnels was precisely calculated based on the yield of the US nuclear weapons that the Russians were afraid of being used against Moscow.
