According to the ATESH resistance group, partisan sabotage has disrupted drone production at a Russian defense plant. The group alleges that damage to an electrical substation caused an emergency halt of production and testing lines at a facility that manufactures drone systems for the Russian military.

The sabotage targeted the plant's critical infrastructure, leading to a complete outage. ATESH, which is known for conducting operations against Russian occupation, regularly reports on acts of sabotage aimed at undermining Russia's military capabilities.

This incident underscores ongoing efforts by resistance groups to impair Russia's defense manufacturing, particularly in the drone sector, which plays a key role in modern warfare.
