Russian military personnel are arriving in the temporarily occupied districts of the Kherson region, where they are reportedly deserting in large numbers, according to the partisan movement ATESH.
It is noted that Russian occupiers are refusing to carry out combat missions and are deserting their temporary deployment areas. Interestingly, some of those who officially went on leave as deserters were later found in the occupied territory of the Kherson region.
Meanwhile, movement agents also report the arrival of a large number of personnel from the occupation army in Novooleksiivka.
"These military personnel are accommodated in vacant abandoned houses. Most of them have multiple tattoos on their bodies. The local population believes that these are people who were previously in places of detention," the message reads.
Agents of ATESH also report that units of the Russian National Guard have been instructed to capture Ukrainian partisans who provide information about the whereabouts of Russian occupation troops. Additionally, there are reports of the disappearance of Russian military personnel in the settlement.
Situation in the temporarily occupied territories
Partisans have discovered a radar station of the Russian occupiers in the temporarily occupied Crimea. It is installed in the area of the Balaklava Thermal Power Plant.
Russian military personnel are also moving self-propelled artillery units towards Dzhankoy in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
In addition, partisans have observed the movement of a large number of Russians to the temporarily occupied Dzhankoy in Crimea.
