by Doug Livermore the Director of Engagements for the Irregular Warfare Initiative.
In this eye-opening analysis, Doug Livermore examines Ukraine's sophisticated sabotage campaign against Russia's railway infrastructure and its critical impact on the war effort. Drawing parallels to World War II resistance operations, the article details how Ukrainian special forces and intelligence services work with both Ukrainian and Russian partisan groups to exploit vulnerabilities in Russia's rail-dependent military logistics. The piece highlights several successful operations, including the recent Severomuysky tunnel attack, while offering insights into how this unconventional warfare strategy could be expanded and applied to future conflicts.
