Russians are likely damaging their equipment to avoid forcing the Dnipro River near Kherson, according to reports from "ATESH."

Residents in the occupied part of the Kherson region are reporting an increase in broken equipment. It is likely that sabotage is occurring there.

This was reported by RBK-Ukraine citing the partisan movement "ATESH".

According to "ATESH," in the temporarily occupied Lazurne, Russian occupiers are complaining about a sharp rise in the number of equipment malfunctions at the repair base. Specifically, this concerns watercraft - boats and jet skis.

The Russians suspect that this is linked to deliberate sabotage by their own military personnel.

"Russian soldiers are increasingly choosing sabotage as a means of survival. Many of them intentionally damage the engines of boats, following the instructions published by the "ATESH" movement," the partisans report.

This leads to boats frequently returning for repairs, which in turn disrupts the Russian army's plans to use these vessels for crossing the Dnipro.

"We continue to assist Russian soldiers by providing advice and instructions on how to avoid pointless casualties and save their lives in this war," writes "ATESH".

Situation in the Kherson Region

Previously, we reported that Russian occupiers are suffering heavy losses during assaults on the right bank of the Kherson region. However, their attempts to break through to the right bank continue.

In particular, Russian command is sending occupiers to assault the left bank of the Kherson region but refuses to retrieve their bodies.
