On Monday, partisans from the Atesh group published information on their official Telegram channel indicating that the command is preparing for an assault and expects significant personnel losses.

It was reported that Russian soldiers had been instructed to write their details (name, personal number, date of birth) on a piece of paper to be placed on their sleeves.

Each soldier is required to keep it with them at all times to facilitate identification in the event of injuries or death.

A special commission of the Russian Ministry of Defence in the Kherson region

A commission from the Russian Ministry of Defence has arrived in the occupied territory of the Kherson region to the motorized rifle regiment of territorial troops, as reported by the Ukrainian-Tatar resistance movement Atesh at the end of December.

"According to our data, the commission's visit is directly related to issues we reported on earlier: the increasing number of sabotage incidents involving floating units and suicides among military personnel. These incidents undermine unit discipline and combat effectiveness, and the Russian command considers them a serious threat. They are convinced that this could thwart plans for a Russian military offensive on the right bank of the Kherson region," it was reported.

The Russian command fears that this situation could seriously disrupt the offensive plans of the Russian military on the right bank of the Kherson region.
