Partisans tracked how the occupiers were unloading Kalibr missiles at the port of Novorossiysk (Krasnodar Krai, Russia). The invaders use those missiles for strikes on Ukraine, according to the partisan movement Atesh.
"Our agents working in the port managed to gather intelligence on the unloading process of Kalibr cruise missiles at the port of Novorossiysk," the message reads.
Currently, the partisans are working to locate the warehouses storing these missiles.
"We are studying the schedules of arriving ships and passing this information to the right hands," said Atesh.
Situation in Novorossiysk
After the Ukrainian special services' strike on the headquarters of the Black Sea Fleet in Crimea in September 2023, the occupiers transferred about 15 ships to the port of Novorossiysk. Since then, it has become the main maritime hub for Russian activities in the Black Sea in the context of the war in Ukraine.
In April, partisans scouted the occupiers' naval base in Novorossiysk, Krasnodar Krai. By May, they discovered that the Russian occupiers were fortifying the naval base in Novorossiysk, hoping to protect it from drone strikes.
