Ukrainian Guerrillas Strike Again: Chechen Unit Vehicle Torched in Mariupol!
Thought the war in Ukraine was getting boring? Think again! The pro-Ukrainian guerrilla group Atesh is proving the conflict is far from over and they’re ready to wreak havoc right in the heart of Russian-controlled territory.
A Nighttime Sabotage That Set the Internet on Fire
On July 13, Atesh posted on their Telegram channel footage of a burning vehicle used by the Chechen unit Ahmat in the city of Mariupol. Yes, you read that right — Mariupol, a city that was under siege by Russian forces and their allies, is now a hotspot for guerrilla warfare. This sabotage isn’t just damage — it’s a direct hit on troops named after Ramzan Kadyrov, the controversial Chechen leader known for his brutality.
Fearless Guerrillas in Action
Atesh claims their saboteurs carried out the operation overnight and escaped unharmed, leaving behind only flames and smoke. This group regularly conducts similar operations, not only in Ukraine but also inside Russia, including sabotage of railway infrastructure in Volgograd and Crimea. Their goal? To disrupt the supply of Russian ammunition and reduce the intensity of Russian attacks.
Mariupol — The City That Paid the Highest Price
Mariupol is a symbol of suffering and destruction. During the siege from February to May, the city was almost completely destroyed, with estimates of at least 25,000 people killed. While the exact death toll remains unknown, it’s clear this city became the epicenter of war’s brutality.
Why Does This Matter?
This sabotage isn’t just another war story. It’s a message to Kadyrov and his forces that they are not untouchable and that Ukrainian guerrillas will keep making their lives hell. In an era of drones, missiles, and cyber warfare, classic sabotage still packs a punch.
What’s Next?
If Atesh keeps up this pace, expect more spectacular actions that will further destabilize Russian forces in Ukraine and their rear areas. Will Kadyrov and his men manage to respond to these blows, or will they face even bigger problems? The war is far from over, and these developments only add fuel to the fire.
Conclusion
The war in Ukraine isn’t just about front lines and big battles. It’s also a shadow war where small guerrilla groups cause big headaches. Atesh proves resistance doesn’t die — it just changes shape. While the world focuses on major conflicts, these small but deadly strikes are changing the course of the war.
So, what’s your favorite tactic in this modern war? Are guerrilla actions the future of conflict or just background noise? Drop a comment and let’s get this fiery debate rolling!
