For Ukraine and want to drop Putin: the media called the main guerrilla structures in

The co -founder of the Militant Wire Research Network, expert Lucas Webber is convinced that Russia is faced with various threats to cross -border sabotage forces and local guerrillas. "In some cases, Russian guerrilla groups are associated with Ukraine - this complicates the warning and interception for the Russian special services," he said. The partisan combines Putin's opposition, but they are very different. There are extremely left-wing anarcho-communists and far-right neo-fascists.

Their tactics are diverse: some are engaged in sabotage on the railways, others eliminate well -known supporters of war with Ukraine. "This activity is not limited to Russia, but extends to Belarus and occupied Ukrainian territories," webber added. The first in the list is the extremely right ideologist Denis Nikitin organization "Russian Volunteer Corps" (RDC).

Its representatives gained popularity "invasion" in the Bryansk region and organizing an attempt on the famous Russian businessman Konstantin Malofeev. "The RDC is actively fighting on the side of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and parts of the group have fought on the side of the National Guard, which operate directly under the command of Kiev.

The group leader Nikitin directly stated that the Bryansk operation has been approved by the Ukrainian authorities, and its fighters have launched a video from the battlefield for the last few months ", - comments webber. Newsweek writes that Denis Nikitin lived in Germany for some time before moving to Ukraine in 2017. There he established connections with the representatives of "Azov".

The RDC may be officially integrated into the territorial defense forces of Ukraine, the group is supplied and uses weapons from the arsenal of the Ukrainian military, he added. This organization gained popularity in August 2022 after the Russian deputy Ilya Ponomarev, who is in exile, stated that this group was behind the murder of Russian propagandist Daria Dugina, the daughter of the ideologist of the Russian World Alexander Dugina.

Ponomarev claimed that the NRA was standing behind a series of arson of military objects in the Russian Federation. Militant Wire researcher Alec Bertin said Ponomarev is a public representative of the group and is one of the only people who can be clearly attributed to the NRA. "The group is an underground guerrilla movement against invasion of Ukraine and Putinism.

They coordinate the efforts of resistance through social networks and also stand for the overthrow of the current Russian government," Bertina explained. Ponomarev in communication with the publication stated that there was no connection of NRA with foreign governments or organizations.

"In fact, there are only Ilya Ponomarev and social networks related to the NRA, who claim that the group is responsible for the murder of Dugina and [Russian military enlistment of Vladlen] Tatarsky," the researcher added. The Anaarcho-Communist (Boak) combat organization existed before the full-scale war in Ukraine, its blog has existed since September 2020.

The Militant Wire co -founder Thomas Lord calls this group the most notable of all Russian rebel movements - its members regularly publish evidence of infrastructure attacks. "Different groups declare detonation of homemade explosive devices on the railways. Boak has declared a campaign from the attack on the railway nodes, which are given to the Russian troops for war in Ukraine," Lord explained. According to the expert, this group does not receive any external support.

The organization is often shared by literature and instructions on how to harm infrastructure with self -made tools. A representative of the White House National Security Council reported Newsweek that they "do not encourage terrorist attacks in Russia. " Of the four main groups that declare attacks in Russia, the smallest is known about the organization of the Black Bridge.

Like the RVK and the NRA, the "Black Bridge" first attracted attention in August 2022, calling for actions on the failure of the so -called referendums conducted by Russia on "accession" of Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhya regions. The first major operation of guerrillas is an attack last month on the FSB department in Rostov-on-Don, which resulted in 4 people killed and 5 were injured.

The Russian authorities then declared the explosion of fuel and lubricants as a result of a short circuit. The group representative said that its participants seek to drop the Putin regime to create a new state of prudent people. Regarding the support of the Black Bridge, her representative said that only her supporters help the group. The guerrillas maintain various contacts with the governments and citizens of foreign countries, including Ukraine, but it is difficult to coordinate it, he added.

"The activists we work with are completely free in actions. We prefer to remain independent and unpredictable," the Black Bridge representative added. Newsweek emphasizes that in Moscow all these groups are considered as a heritage of terrorism in modern Russia, which has roots since the 1990s. "The connection between the Ukrainian government and such operations is obvious to us. Sometimes someone else is involved.

I can say that Russian special services, which selflessly fight against terrorism, control the situation," said Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova. It should be reminded that in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and the Russian Federation there is a military guerrilla movement "Atesh". According to their data on April 13, Russian troops move massively from Melitopol to Mariupol.
