Ukrainian Partisan Blows Up Akhmat Vehicle in Mariupol, Issues Warning to Kadyrov Forces

A Ukrainian resistance agent from the “Atesh” movement reportedly destroyed a vehicle belonging to Russia’s Akhmat  battalion during a nighttime sabotage operation in occupied Mariupol, the group announced on July 14.

According to ATESH, the vehicle was parked outside a building where the fighters were staying. The agent successfully planted and detonated an explosive device before safely withdrawing from the area.

The group released a statement mocking the Kadyrov-aligned unit and warning that such acts of resistance will continue:

“We send our regards to the puppet Kadyrovites—and especially to Aladdin’s Slippers  [a derogatory nickname]. Let us remind you that filming TikToks on Ukrainian soil is forbidden. Your illegal presence here will be punished by every means available,” the message read.

The Akhmat unit, affiliated with Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, is known for its brutal tactics and flashy social media presence. Members of the unit are frequently deployed to reinforce Russian operations across Ukraine, especially in urban warfare zones.

Earlier, a vehicle carrying four officers from Russia’s Akhmat unit—part of the Chechen forces loyal to Ramzan Kadyrov—was destroyed in a blast on occupied Ukrainian territory.
