  Whereas true, not really.  They capture Ukrainian soldiers and trade them regularly.  It doesn't look like they treat them well tho.
context: Stick a fork in the Russian army >
  
  I'm glad the article called them partisans instead of guerilla fighters. "Partisans" rings a wwii bell that signifies fighting against nazi oppressors more than anything. Good stuff >
  
  Absolutely immediately made me think of yugoslav resistance under tito. Rather than like the veitcong that guerrilla would. >
  
  Could just call them "resistance fighters" too... >
  
  Resistance fighters sounds like French in WW2 >
  
  Amongst others, same terminology in other countries like Denmark and Norway for instance. During WWII the local resistance blew up thw rail lines more than 100 times near my home village. >
  
  Glory to the heroes >
  
  Glory to Ukraine >
  
  PEACE. 
  Peace to Ukraine. >
  
  Russia takes rail transport very seriously, and maintains a large formation (14 brigades, or just over 28,000 men) just for railway construction/repair etc.  With any luck these units have been picked clean to provide frontline replacements and will not be able to keep the logistics network moving. >
  
  I think they know their dependency on logistics via rail, so i highly doubt they would gut their brigades to die on the front line but it also wouldn't surprise me if they did >
  
  I think it's more a suggestion that they have had their manpower transferred to front line units rather than deploying the brigades themselves to the front. Whether that's the case or not is anyone's guess. >
  
  This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 46%. (I'm a bot)
  
  
  In the occupied part of Luhansk region, near the town of Shchastia, partisans destroyed a railway track in the area where the invaders were transporting military equipment and ammunition.
  "On the evening of January 6 near Shchastia, an improvised explosive device was employed to destroy a railway line between the city of Luhansk and the village of Lantrativk," wrote Haidai.
  As reported, some of the fiercest battles on the front line are ongoing in Luhansk region around the town of Kreminna due to the attempts of Russian troops to secure the right flank of their Bakhmut sector.

  Reminds me of French resistance going against the nazis who were killing so many innocents. >
  
  Reminds of Soviet resistance against Nazis. >
  
  Or the Polish resistance against Nazis. The point is to screw the invaders ✊🏼 >
  
  Exactly. >
  
  If possible they should mine the tracks to cause derailement. It takes alot more effort to repair and clear the tracks.
  The rails themselves are very easy to repair.
  Obv dont target civillian trains.. would have to be planned to get military transports >
  
  That would definitely be a better way to stop it.. They take out a section of the track and the Russians can see it and fix it.  But sabotage a section of the track where the Russians can't see its been fucked with and cause a derailment to happen,  Not only are you taking out their supply route but you also just took out an entire train of supplies and military equipment..
  I like it.. >
  
  Or go the way of Fidel Castro and run a bulldozer through the tracks while the train is crossing. That’s how he became a hero. >
  
  Lol.. That would be something to see... >
  
  There is going to be some amazing stories about partisans after this war. >
  
  Not sure why this isn’t happening more, until now. Ukraine has drones they should be taking out bridges and train depots on the masses. >
  
  A partisan doesn't get any privileges like a soldier does.  If they are captured, they can be killed on the spot. >
  
  Since when does Russia respect any laws regarding war conventions? Just as likely to kill captured Ukrainian soldiers as partisans it would seem…
