Big new analysis, including translation of new stuff from Autonomous Action:
Russia: Mobilization and Resistance
This probably also belongs in the mobilisation thread, but I'm crap at keeping up with the really fast-moving big threads?

putting up a hook to hang my hopes upon
In Ukhta, Komi Republic, North West Russia, a commemorative plaque dedicated to the late war criminal "Motorola" has been smashed up and had red paint splashed over it. "Motorola" was the nickname of Arsen Pavlov who led the pro-Russian ultranationalist Sparta Batallion in Donbass in 2014. He spoke of killing POWs. He was killed by an improvised explosive in 2016. The plaque was put up in a ceremony in early July this year.

What are the realistic chances of Putin being overthrown? There are conflicting reports of mass support for him from nearly all Russians, with nearly all others thinking he's not going far enough - and of 1000s fleeing conscription, mutinying, arrested for holding up blank sheets of paper.

БОАK posted elsewhere that in Russia, a railway track - used for transporting supplies to the Russian occupation in Ukraine - was blown up.

This group has been helping antiwar Russians get out of the country - and helping Ukrainian refugees apparently counts as being antiwar.
Irina, a 60-year-old economist, received a German visa after trying to help 750 refugees from the Ukrainian city of Mariupol who had been dumped in abandoned factory housing near Penza, in central Russia.
She said that she raised more than $14,000 through crowd funding — buying food, medicine, children’s books and even lingerie for some destitute women. Increasingly hostile local officials demanded that she deliver the aid through them.
Soon someone scrawled “Here lives an ally of the Ukrainian regime” on her apartment door. Agents from the F.S.B., the Federal Security Service previously known as the K.G.B., questioned her for an hour. Right after she was released, four burly men abducted her from the apartment’s parking lot and drove her into the woods.
“We will bury you here!” she remembered one shouted as they shoved her to the ground, ultimately giving her a concussion and severe bruising. “Who gives you money? Who are you working for?”
When they let her go five hours later, she decided she had to leave the country.
