Ukrainian partisans reported that Russia is expecting a Ukrainian airborne landing in Yevpatoria, on the west coast of Russian-occupied Crimea.
An agent of the “Atesh” partisan movement, from the Yevpatoria National Guard of Russia (Rosgvardia), said that the Russians are anticipating a Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance group landing in the area.
“In response, they are actively strengthening defensive structures throughout the city and its surroundings,” said the partisans in a post on Monday, Nov 25.
It is also reported that about half of the families of Rosgvardia officers have left the peninsula due to concerns over potential combat in Yevpatoria.
The partisan movement is calling on local residents to share information with “Atesh.”
Last week, during reconnaissance of the Yevpatoria area, an “Atesh” agent discovered that Russian troops had moved military equipment and air defense systems to the Kerch area to provide additional coverage for the Crimean Bridge. This left the aircraft repair plant and the adjacent airfield practically unprotected and without equipment.
