ATESH agent cuts power to Russian supply railway hub in Luhansk

Ukrinform
The partisan movement ATESH has disabled a railway supply hub in temporarily occupied Luhansk by cutting its power.

According to Ukrinform, ATESH reported this on Telegram.

An agent of the movement carried out sabotage at an electrical substation in Luhansk. He managed to successfully infiltrate the facility and destroy an electric transformer. A fire engulfed the transformer equipment, and repairs are expected to take weeks.

The substation supplied power to a railway hub through which trains carrying military equipment and ammunition were moving around the clock. The strike caused delays in supplying Russian forces on the Lyman and Kostiantynivka directions.

As a result, the occupying forces are now forced to reorganize their logistics and look for alternative routes.

As Ukrinform reported, ATESH agents also destroyed a telecommunications cabinet at a key communications tower in Russia's Sverdlovsk region. The disabled facility directly coordinated the transfer of Russian reserves and equipment toward the Pokrovsk direction.
