The partisan group ATESH has carried out another successful sabotage operation near the temporarily occupied Luhansk. Agents disabled a railway hub, leaving a portion of the occupying forces without supplies, according to the ATESH Telegram channel.

“Our agents destroyed a relay cabinet at the railway hub in the Luhansk area. The equipment was completely burned out - there will be no quick restoration,” the post reads.

According to ATESH, this railway line serves as a critical supply artery for Russian army units on the Kupiansk and Lyman directions, where the most intense fighting is currently taking place.

Trains carrying ammunition, armored vehicle components, and fuel and lubricants intended to reinforce assault groups on the front line passed through this hub.

“Disabling the relay cabinet has blocked traffic on this section. The trains did not arrive on time - frontline units were left without planned ammunition and spare parts resupply. This directly limits their offensive capabilities,” the partisans added.

Other ATESH sabotage operations

On March 15, it was reported that ATESH partisans carried out another successful sabotage operation in the Luhansk region.

Agents destroyed a transformer in Sievierodonetsk that powered the headquarters of the 123rd Artillery Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces. As a result of the power outage, communication systems and equipment failed, leaving the unit unable to coordinate actions or issue and receive orders.

We also reported on March 22 that ATESH successfully set fire to a Russian military vehicle that is beyond repair.
