Russian electric locomotive was named target of Ukrainian partisan operation. It carried military supplies toward Kharkiv front
The ATESH partisan movement says its agents destroyed the cab of an electric locomotive.
Ukrainian partisans from the ATESH movement have claimed responsibility for sabotaging an electric locomotive carrying military supplies towards the Kharkiv front. The sabotage occurred near Voronezh, with the ATESH group targeting a critical link in Russia's military logistics chain. The rail supply line targeted by the saboteurs was bound for the Kupiansk sector, one of the active fronts in Kharkiv Oblast.
Russia relies heavily on rail transportation to supply its forces, with ammunition, fuel, weapons, and heavy equipment often transported via this route. The damage to the locomotive, particularly the cabin, rendered the vehicle inoperable and disrupted the supply chain. The ATESH statement emphasized the cascading effect of the sabotage, with delays in delivering essential resources causing significant combat losses for Russia's military units.
While the account of the Voronezh sabotage cannot be independently verified by Euromaidan Press, rail sabotage has been a documented tactic used by partisans to disrupt the enemy's logistics in the war behind Russian lines.
