Agents of the ATESH resistance movement record the movement of fuel and lubricants throughout Crimea. The occupiers are trying to establish the logistics of supplying their troops, but avoid accumulating large stocks in warehouses due to the threat of Ukrainian drone strikes.

As reported by the ATESH resistance movement, supply routes have changed - more and more echelons with fuel are arriving in Crimea from remote regions of Russia. This is the result of strikes on oil refineries in the border and rear regions of Russia. These changes make transportation more difficult and expensive.

As a result, fuel prices are rising at Crimean gas stations, and local residents are increasingly facing fuel shortages.

In addition to fuel, ATES agents have recorded how Russians are placing military equipment in the seized homes of residents of Kherson region. The occupiers hide armored vehicles, trucks and even multiple launch rocket systems under camouflage nets.

Hiding behind civilians is a gross violation of the Geneva Convention, and all these actions are carefully documented. Information about the logistics and location of equipment is shared with the Ukrainian Defense Forces so that no war criminal escapes responsibility.

Recently, the Russian military has been actively moving equipment in Crimea after attacks by Ukrainian UAVs.

Earlier, the Russian military increased the number of air defense systems near key Russian military facilities in occupied Crimea. At the same time, they weakened the defense of other frontline areas. Then the ATES guerrillas conducted a reconnaissance of the Gvardeyske military airfield near Simferopol, which is actively used by the Russian invaders to base their aircraft and logistics in Crimea. They recorded a significant increase in air defense systems, discovering many S-400 launchers and radar stations. This facility plays a key role in providing air support and supplies to Russian troops in southern Ukraine.

The guerrillas also discovered that the Russians have begun to redeploy their aircraft to inactive airfields. For example, the occupiers are working on runways, repairing buildings and moving military equipment and people to Zavodske airport in the temporarily occupied Simferopol.
