Thanks for reporting on the sabotage of the Iskander-related facilities. I hadn't seen a theme yet uniting the arson campaign underway in Russia and that sounds like a pretty solid theory (that I hope is correct).
One of the comments (in Cyrillic) points out that Russian maintenance standards for tires are based on tread wear - not on the overall health of the tires.

I hope it's true, too.
Some interesting info from today: some Russian military vehicles still have tires with "Made in USSR" (in English) on their sidewalls, meaning a lot are likely 20+ years old. Per https://mobile.twitter.com/TrentTelenko/status/1521182849000423426.
