Ukraine’s General Staff creates partisan movement, commanders already found
Speaker of the information analytical centre if the National Security Council Andrei Lysenko reported it on September 1.
Besides terrorists, there are about 10 or 15 thousand Russian soldiers in Donets Basin, he noted. They are being reinforced every day – new people, military equipment, weapons. They do not even hide their identification marks in Lugansk, Lysenko said.
Meanwhile, numerous volunteers from different Ukrainian cities want to go to the front line. About 5 thousand people are ready to defend their city from Russian troops only in Mariupol.
Ukraine’s General Staff is creating a partisan movement now. The commanders of partisan detachments who know the people they will be working with have already been selected, UNIAN reports. The regions controlled by Ukraine that may be attacked by the Russian Army are probably meant. Such detachments started being prepared there in spring. There are no forests in Donets Basin which makes traditional partisan warfare difficult.
