The Russian authorities in the occupied territory of Crimea have decided to build road screens to hide their air defence systems from the local community, which are regularly being destroyed due to Ukrainian attacks.

Atesz explained on their social media that the construction of the screens is a direct consequence of the successful attacks by the Ukrainian Defense Forces. "The reason for building the screens was the successful strikes by the Ukrainian Defense Forces, which led to the destruction of the air defence systems of the Russian army," Atesz announced.

The resistance movement emphasized that the success of Ukrainian attacks on the air defence systems is largely due to the residents of Crimea.

The residents "actively shared information about the locations of the occupiers' military equipment," which made it possible to direct the attacks to the right places.

The resistance movement appeals. "This could thwart their plans"

Atesz also appealed to the people who are to be involved in the construction of the screens.

"We know that the Russians plan to build many screens on the roads of Crimea shortly. We appeal to their builders to write to us and share this valuable information. This could thwart their plans," Atesz appealed. The resistance movement believes that with such information, it will be possible to foil the plans of the Russian authorities.
