Partisan group destroys Russian military truck in occupied Ukraine, allegedly killing soldiers, Atesh claims
A Russian Ural military truck was destroyed, allegedly killing "several occupiers" near occupied Melitopol overnight on June 12, the pro-Ukrainian Atesh partisan group claimed. "(O)ur fighters set fire to an army Ural truck, and several occupiers on duty now remain in the fields of Zaporizhzhia forever," the Atesh group said in a post to Telegram. On June 10, the Atesh partisan group claimed they destroyed a vehicle used by drone operators in the Russian 64th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade in occupied Melitopol. The group says the June 12 attack will mark the start of Russia's annual national holiday. "A gift for Russia Day: Atesh agents carried out sabotage in the Melitopol region... Atesh agents conveyed 'congratulations' to the occupiers: one of our fighters set fire to an army Ural truck," the group said. The Kyiv Independent could not verify the group's claims. The Atesh partisan group regularly conducts sabotage attacks in Russia and Ukraine's Russian-occupied territories.

Partisans disrupt Russian weapons supply to Kursk Oblast
Partisans from the ATESH resistance movement have claimed that they have conducted a sabotage operation, disabling a relay cabinet in Russia's Tula Oblast and slowing down the supply of weapons and military equipment to Kursk Oblast. Source: ATESH on Telegram Quote: "Our movement agents set fire to a facility located on the railway track near Yasnogorsk, on the route leading towards Kursk Oblast, where a grouping of Russian occupiers is concentrated." Details: ATESH explained that their planned action had aimed to slow down the supply of weapons and military equipment to the battlefield. Quote: "This action was carefully planned: the damaged relay cabinet provides communication and control of track switches on a critically important section of the railway. Without timely power supply, the automated systems cannot redirect trains, causing serious delays in the movement of freight trains." "All of this delays the redeployment of reserves and complicates the organisation of new [Russian] offensive operations." Support Ukrainska Pravda on Patreon!
