Pro-Ukrainian partisans disable electronic warfare equipment in Russia’s Novgorod Oblast, group claims

(Dmytro Basmat – The Kyiv Independent) Members of the pro-Ukrainian Atesh partisan group disabled Russian electronic warfare equipment in Russia’s Novgorod Oblast, the group claimed in a social media post on March 29. Atesh claimed that the group’s operators, working in coordination with Ukraine’s Armed Forces, set ablaze three cellular towers equipped with electronic warfare antennas on March 17. The tower fires, which occurred in the communities of Okhvat, Demyansk, and Valdai, limited anti-drone interference, “allowing Ukrainian drones to pass… and strike an aircraft repair plant in Staraya Russa,” the group claimed. – Pro-Ukrainian partisans disable electronic warfare equipment in Russia’s Novgorod Oblast, group claims
