May 1988. An agreement was reached on the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan in 1989. The decision threatens the clandestine arms and drug trafficking business run by influential figures in the Afghan leadership. With the help of a special sabotage group, they decide to disrupt the agreements reached on the withdrawal of troops. To do this, you need to organize a major sabotage on the territory of the Soviet Union itself. The attackers' choice falls on the Baikonur Cosmodrome, from which the Soviet-Afghan space crew is scheduled to launch in August 1988. The death of cosmonauts on Soviet territory will certainly lead to an aggravation of the political situation and will slow down the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan.
