The "Atesh" partisans reported a sabotage operation on the railway near a Russian arsenal in the Tver region.

The arsenal contains Iskander ballistic missiles, Tochka-U missiles, large-caliber artillery shells, and ammunition for multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS).
Партизаны «Атеш» сообщили о диверсии на железной дороге рядом с российским арсеналом в Тверской области.

"The agents of the 'Atesh' movement successfully carried out a sabotage operation on the railway near the settlement of Stara Toropa in the Tver region. This section of the track is used for supplying the front with ammunition from the 23rd and 107th arsenals of the GRAU, which are strategically important facilities for Russian military infrastructure," the message from the movement stated on their Telegram channel.

The damage to the railway will complicate the supply of ammunition, disrupting a vital supply line for Russian troops at the front and depriving them of the ability to quickly replenish their resources, claim the partisans from 'Atesh' (which translates from Crimean Tatar as 'fire').

According to 'Atesh', the 107th arsenal stores Iskander ballistic missiles, Tochka-U missiles, large-caliber artillery shells, and ammunition for multiple rocket launchers (MRLs).

The 23rd arsenal contains stocks of tank and artillery shells, fragmentation and high-explosive mines, as well as ammunition for mortars, along with anti-tank missiles and guided projectiles.

The Russian authorities have not commented on the reports of the railway sabotage.

Activists from 'Atesh' previously told the BBC about their primary activity – monitoring Russian military movements in occupied Crimea and reporting them to Ukrainian forces.

Background. It is worth noting that at the beginning of December, partisans from the 'Atesh' movement announced a sabotage operation on the railway between Moscow and Kursk. They reported that the supply of fuel and equipment to the occupiers at the front line has slowed down.
