The Ukrainian partisan resistance Atesh reported a strategic railway sabotage operation targeting a critical transportation route connecting Moscow with Kursk Oblast.
The group claims in its Telegram channel their agent burned a relay box in the Chekhov district of Moscow Oblast, deliberately disrupting logistics for Russian military forces.
Disrupting logistics for Russian military forces within Russia is crucial for Ukraine’s defense as it directly undermines the combat effectiveness by hindering their supply of ammunition, food, and equipment. Targeting Russian logistics contributes to a longer-term strategy of attrition, eroding Russia’s capacity to sustain military operations.
According to Atesh’s statement, the operation was specifically designed to impede fuel and military equipment supplies intended for Russian troops at the front line.
