He asks the Minister to authorize a ground operation to destroy the base, promising that his special Yuri Nikitin will not only get the intelligence for the operation, but will also get evidence of the presence of Americans at the training grounds of the camp. After a week of training Nikitin under the guise of a slave and accompanied by a local militia Hafiz enters the fortress.
