ATESH reports that the substation is a vital link for the Russian military machine.

It provides power to the Polpinskaya station, which carries trains with ammunition and equipment to the front. De-energization causes failures in automatics and serious delays in deliveries.

It also supplies the district's enterprises (including the Bryansk repair enterprise and others), which work for the needs of the Russian Defense Ministry.

"ATESH precisely hits the weak points of the enemy's power system, paralyzing its rear," the movement said.
