Russian troops are constantly increasing the number of defensive positions along the coast of the temporarily occupied Crimea, according to the ATESH partisan movement.

The enemy is building up its positions every day, despite the fact that the occupation authorities claim that there is no threat of an airborne operation by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

"In Yevpatoria and Yalta, the Russians are engaging civilian contractors to equip firing and defensive positions that look very cartoonish," the statement said.

ATESH also added that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are allegedly forming a "striking fist" for an autumn breakthrough towards the occupied peninsula.

"There are rumors among the Russian military that the Joint Ukrainian Forces are forming a so-called "striking fist" for an autumn breakthrough towards Crimea and cutting the land corridor in the Kherson direction," the ATESH noted.

According to Navy Commander Oleksii Neizhpapa, in order to liberate the occupied Crimea, it is necessary to destroy the Crimean bridge, as it is an element of Russian military logistics.

Earlier, RBC-Ukraine reported why the Chinese military arrived in Belarus.
