Ukrainian partisans have documented the construction of new Russian military base in Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region. Facility is located in Myrne settlement near the city of Melitopol, the partisan movement Atesh reports.
According to agents, round-the-clock surveillance is being conducted over the territory occupied by the 291st Guards Motor Rifle Regiment of the Russian Armed Forces. Coordinates of facility: 46.930529, 35.417587.
As partisans note, construction equipment is actively operating at the site. Russian forces are building a permanent field camp to accommodate personnel.
Special attention is being paid to the creation of a training cluster — the arrangement of training sites for drone operators has been recorded.
"The enemy is trying to create a rear base for training reserves and drone operators, hoping that deep inside occupied territory they will not be reached. This is a mistake," partisans said.
They added that construction is taking place under full control of underground movement, and coordinates have already been passed to Ukraine Defense Forces.
"Instead of new barracks, fiery 'greeting' awaits Russian forces," Atesh stressed.

Atesh intelligence
As is known, Atesh partisans conduct active rear operations against the Russian army in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and on the territory of Russia.
Earlier, the agent network of the resistance movement Atesh transferred the coordinates of the air defense headquarters of Russian forces in Sevastopol to the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
Agents also conducted reconnaissance in the area of Sevastopol Bay, which is a key node of the military logistics infrastructure of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.
In addition, Atesh intelligence identified a repair and recovery base of Russian forces in the Kherson region, and later Ukraine Defense Forces successfully destroyed it.
