Partisans from the Atesh resistance movement destroyed a communications tower belonging to a Russian military unit in Moscow Oblast, targeting an element of the air defence system of the 5th Air Defence Division within the Russian Aerospace Forces.

Partisans from the Atesh resistance movement have claimed to have carried out a successful act of sabotage in Russia's Moscow Oblast, striking an element of the air defence system of the 5th Air Defence Division within the Russian Aerospace Forces' anti-aircraft missile troops.

A communications tower belonging to a military unit was destroyed.

This tower served as a communications and command hub for a unit of the Russian Armed Forces. It provided secure radio-relay communications for the rapid exchange of information and orders between command and subordinate air defence units. The tower was also used to house electronic intelligence and signal interception equipment, which is critical for gathering intelligence and maintaining overall control of the situation in the region.

By setting the tower on fire, they had weakened air defence capabilities in central Russia.
