The Russians began moving their supply depots behind Mariupol following attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces

Ukrainian defense forces have launched a series of sustained and deep strikes against Russian military field depots and backup command posts in the Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk regions, forcing the occupiers to urgently relocate their remaining supplies. 

This was reported by agents of the “ATESH” partisan movement. According to their information, due to the increasing intensity of Ukrainian attacks, Russian forces are unable to respond promptly to threats.

Ukrainian Hornet drones are particularly active in the southern sector, striking targets along the Taganrog–Dzhankoy highway. This road is one of the main logistical arteries for supplying Russian units in the south. Even those occupier facilities that had remained untouched since 2022 have begun to come under attack.

Due to regular fire damage, the Russian command has begun urgently withdrawing logistical supplies beyond Mariupol—to areas currently out of reach of Ukrainian weapons. Partisans note that this relocation has already complicated the delivery of ammunition and equipment to the front lines, which in the long run could negatively impact the pace of the Russian offensive and the Russian forces’ ability to maintain pressure on the front.
