A few issues:
the label, as others have pointed out, is obviously fake
You can't just 'hack' and read a sina workstation where's the smartcard?
But I mean if it were real, how stupid would you be to give up realtime access to all NATO reconnaissance data for what exactly a tiny news story nobody's going to believe anyways?
That means if the story were true it would be conclusive proof all Russian military intelligence is lobotomized...
I don't think propaganda is supposed to make you look incompetent like that... try harder honey

Just because somebody has a weapon it doesn't mean it was going to be used. Did Ukraine threaten to use biological weapons?
If this is true then it may have been worth it to Russia to lose 10,000 troops. I would also imagine if true, Russia would have spoken with certain NATO member nations about this.
Though would Ukraine use biological weapons with their civilians in danger, not to mention, there have to be some talks with the NATO nations and I can't see NATO continuing to support Ukraine if they did use them. It would enflame Russia and the rest of the world.
Imagine Russia giving bioweapons and their means of delivery to Mexican drug cartels, Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, and other US enemies.
Will you live comfortably?
...the asset tag is both too new for such a rubbish old laptop and doesn't actually have any relevant asset information.

We really need to see your sources or everyone will think you're lying. The pictures prove nothing and as another member mentioned, the asset tag is both too new for such a rubbish old laptop and doesn't actually have any relevant asset information.
Spreading lies at a time like this is beyond wrong. This war isn't a game...it's potentially the end of the world.

Just curious, how old would you say this laptop is? Apparently running Vista, so maybe late aughts?
I'm not sure its age indicates its authenticity though. It wouldn't be the first time that NATO/others have passed on their handmedowns after they get better stuff...

That's probably the saddest asset tag I've ever seen. Even public school systems have better systems than that. Makes me seriously question the validity of it being an actual NATO laptop. It's also the absolute cleanest asset tag I've ever seen in my life.
No bar codes, no serial information, nothing at all on there that is on every single other asset tag I've ever seen in my life. Yep, going to call BS on this one.
The laptop was connected to the unified NATO reconnaissance network and received information from satellites and American UAVs. Detailed maps of the location of Russian troops and the direction of the Ukrainian Armed Forces strikes in the Donbass and Crimea were found in the laptop. How long the laptop was used by the Russianss not reported.
"Right Sector" - the largest organization of Bandera and Nazis in Ukraine, has its own armed formations, is banned in Russia as terrorist and extremist.
