Andriy Yusov, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate, says that all activities of Ukrainian guerrillas in the temporarily occupied territories are fully coordinated with the Defense Forces

He said this on Espreso TV. 

"The Resistance Movement in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine closely coordinates its activities with the Security and Defense Forces. In particular, with the Main Intelligence Directorate and the Special Operations Forces, which are also responsible for coordinating the Resistance Movement according to the relevant law. We provide information about the work of our guerrillas when it is necessary. Only in such cases do we verify and confirm such information," said Yusov.

The representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate emphasized that Ukrainians continue to resist the occupying Russian troops in the temporarily occupied territories.

"I understand that individual experts relying on public sources and their own considerations may make different assessments and generalizations. However, I want to emphasize that everything is under control in this situation. Coverage of the Resistance Movement is also done to make it clear that they are not able to block the real state of affairs in the modern world. In particular, that Ukrainians in the temporarily occupied territories are effectively resisting the invaders," he added.

  • On October 10, the Center for National Resistance reported that in the temporarily occupied city of Melitopol, Zaporizhzhia region, members of resistance movement claimed responsibility for the inscriptions '200' that appeared on apartments where the Russian military and police live.
