Russian air defense units on the temporarily occupied peninsula are expecting large-scale strikes from February 24 to 26 and are using all available methods to avoid being on position during these days.
This was reported by the partisan movement ATESH on Telegram.
'Russian air defense units on the temporarily occupied peninsula are expecting large-scale strikes from February 24 to 26 and are using all available methods to avoid being on position during these days. It is reported that conflicts arise over the possibility of taking leave during this period, and some military personnel are simulating illness to go for examination in the hospital,' the statement said.
It is noted that the Russian Armed Forces command is aware of the critical vulnerability of their air defense systems, especially after a number of units were relocated from Crimea to Russia. Internal security units are already carrying out intensified counter-sabotage measures, fearing leaks of information about the exact location of the complexes.
'Local residents and even the Russian military continue to pass on data about air defense positions in Crimea. It seems that in the near future, there will be even fewer installations,' added ATESH.
