The partisan movement ATESH has successfully conducted reconnaissance of a strategically important facility in Voronezh, Russia.
An agent of the movement fully surveyed the grounds of the Chemical Automatics Design Bureau, which is part of Roscosmos and is involved in the development and production of liquid rocket engines.
According to ATESH, this facility manufactures engines for the Iskander-M tactical missile system, which is actively used against Ukraine.
In addition, the Bureau, together with the Voronezh Mechanical Plant, forms a unified platform for the production of engines for intercontinental ballistic missiles (RS-20, RS-18), air defense systems, and launch vehicles such as Soyuz, Proton, and others.
The agent thoroughly documented the enterprise's territory, filmed the buildings and infrastructure, and recorded the vehicles in the parking area. According to the movement's representatives, this data will help identify the plant's employees — individuals involved in producing weapons used against Ukraine.
All collected information has already been handed over to Ukraine's Defense Forces.
Strike on Iskander
As reported by Ukraine’s General Staff on June 5, Ukrainian defenders launched a missile strike on a concentration area of Russian missile forces near Klintsy in the Bryansk region.
The 26th Missile Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces was allegedly preparing to launch missiles from that location toward a Ukrainian settlement, possibly Kyiv. One Russian missile launcher detonated, and two others were damaged.
