The Atesh partisan movement reports that nearly all families of senior Black Sea Fleet officers have hurriedly left Crimea

The Atesh partisans claim panic has gripped Black Sea Fleet units. According to the report, in early April, a directive was issued by the military leadership of the russian occupying forces in Crimea to implement additional security measures at military facilities across the peninsula.

It is known that covert patrols are being conducted in the bays of Sevastopol by BARS reservists in civilian clothes, along with increased security measures and attempts to conceal equipment. Moreover, all days off for the occupiers have been canceled.

"It seems russians are beginning to implement Ukraine’s termination of the agreement allowing the Black Sea Fleet to remain in Sevastopol. Turns out, a few well-placed hits on warships did the trick," Atesh stated.

The Atesh movement thanks Crimeans who help Ukrainian partisans. "Together, we continue to liberate our land from occupation," the statement reads.
