The partisan group ATESH claimed responsibility for a sabotage operation in Rostov-on-Don, reporting that its agents destroyed a locomotive carrying military cargo.
ATESH and other partisan networks aid Ukraine’s defense effort by disrupting Russian supply chains from within, targeting logistics, equipment, and troop movements. By providing intelligence and carrying out sabotage inside Russia, they slow operations and force Russia to redirect resources to security and repairs.

According to the group’s Telegram statement, the strike targeted a key distribution hub for Russia’s Southern and Eastern military formations, delaying the movement of ammunition, equipment, and reinforcements.
Agents embedded within Russian railway troops, and growing
ATESH said its members are embedded within Russian railway troops, who allegedly face withheld pay for frontline service. The group reported that its operatives provide daily intelligence on Russian logistics, carry out sabotage, and disrupt Russian supply chains from within.
The statement said that the network continues to expand, with more Russian servicemen reportedly willing to assist or defect. ATESH encouraged others to pass along information or sabotage efforts, promising confidentiality and rewards for participation.
