From a right-of-centre English newspaper:

Russia will be plunged into a "massive ethnic conflict" when Vladimir Putin's regime collapses, Ukrainian partisans have told Express.co.uk.

Atesh is a partisan group that is based in the Crimea, whose members are mostly made up of local Tatars and Ukrainians.

Meaning "fire" in the Tatar language, Atesh was formed in the immediate aftermath of Putin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Its main functions include carrying out sabotage operations against the Russian army, as well as intelligence gathering and supporting pro-Ukrainian resistance movements in the occupied territories.

Russia is made up of a complex tapestry of ethnic cultures and people, with over 190 different nationalities living in the country.

The Tatars, who are of Turkic origin, form the largest group of these, with a population of just over 5.3 million, according to a 2010 national census.

Most of them live in the autonomous republics of Tatarstan and Bashkortostan, that are part of the Russian Federation.

Both these republics have established national movements fighting for independence from the Kremlin and who make natural allies for Atesh.


Will this nationalist group be able to really trouble Putin, diverting military resources from being used elsewhere?

Just a fantasy,the Turkic people of Russia are ''Russified'',they wont do shit.
The Crimean Tatars however are fighting with Ukraine against the Russians.
Take for instance the other Turkic states formerly under Russian rule like Kazakistan,Turkmenistan,Oezbekistan,Kirgizistan after 30 years of independence still think Russian.

To the Ukrainians thank you for the Stalker series.

Despite the war which is tragic. Stalker 2 has now become one of my favourite games of this era of consoles.

Despite the crappy disappointment of games lately. The Ukrainians despite the odds able to release it. Stalker 2 is not perfect but the game is much better than the crap thats getting released.

Ukrainians with a small devopment team able to a better job than EA, Activision and Ubisoft.

An episode of a battle between two Ukrainian stormtroopers and one Russian soldier. The location of the shooting is not reported, the video is filmed and commented on by a Russian drone, but another unknown drone is also visible in the frame. As reported, the Russian stormtrooper captured a Ukrainian dugout. After that, Ukrainian servicemen tried to push it out of there. As a result of the battle, the Ukrainian stormtroopers retreated. The Russian soldier also later left the dugout due to shelling by Ukrainian artillery. As reported, the positions were later captured by Russian units, but this is not shown in the video.
