On the left bank of the Kherson region, the Russian 205th motorized rifle brigade, which is stationed near Tavriysk, has increased the number of cases of sabotage of orders from the Russian military command.

This was reported by the Atesh guerrilla movement with reference to its informants in the ranks of the enemy army.

According to the agents, the Russian military is unwilling to participate in futile attacks in the Kherson sector, as they realize their pointlessness and high probability of death.

The guerrillas claim that the occupiers are trying to disrupt their preparations for combat. Those responsible for the supply of weapons and boats deliberately delay the issuance of invoices, make mistakes in documents and slow down the supply process. At the same time, drivers of vehicles break down and are in no hurry to repair them, citing a lack of spare parts and the complexity of the repair.

"All of this is done with the sole purpose of buying time and waiting for rotation to avoid being sent to the front line. The command is facing growing resistance in the troops, and sabotage in the Russian army is becoming widespread," Atesh explained.

Recently, it became known that two Russian soldiers drowned in the Dnipro River during a water obstacle course. A mechanic-driver and an armored personnel carrier commander died due to a technical malfunction of the vehicle during the training near the village of Khorly in Kherson region. The military were probably preparing to cross the Dnipro River to the right bank.

On January 29, Atesh agents recorded Russians placing military equipment in the seized houses of residents of Kherson region. The occupiers hide armored vehicles, trucks and even multiple rocket launchers under camouflage nets.

It has also become known that the Russian military has increased the number of air defense systems near key Russian military facilities in the occupied Crimea. At the same time, they have weakened the defense of other frontline areas. The guerrillas conducted reconnaissance of the Gvardeyske military airfield near Simferopol, which is actively used by the Russian invaders to base their aircraft and logistics in Crimea.
