Agents of the Atesh  movement carried out a successful sabotage operation, setting fire to a military vehicle in the Budionnivskyi district of the temporarily occupied city of Donetsk in the Donetsk region.

Atesh reported that on March 18 on their Telegram channel, attaching a video of the car being on fire.

According to the partisan movement, their agents waited until the Russian soldiers of the 1st Division of the 933rd Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment finished drinking and went to sleep. Shortly after, their vehicle went up in flames.

“Judging by those who used the vehicle, it rarely appeared near the frontline, but it was equipped with an expensive mobile electronic warfare system — now completely destroyed,” Atesh wrote.

The Atesh noted that its agents left the scene unnoticed, adding that locals say this was not the first case of “spontaneous combustion” in the area.

Previously, on March 12, the Atesh resistance movement stated that they successfully carried out a sabotage operation near Sevastopol, temporarily occupied Crimea, on the night of March 9.
