The other day I read a (possibly wrong, fictional, or dramatized) account of some private group hacking Belorussian railways to impede Russian military logistics.

I'm sure this is not new, but to me it is a fascinating concept: the modern era equivalent of Partisan soldiers, conducting cyber warfare in their jammies.

It's a real thing, live and ongoing. They have a Telegram channel https://t.me/cpartisans and also a promotional video on YouTube for how to defeat Lukashenko, the only dictator in Europe: https://youtu.be/UldT78OjlvE

They did manage to induce mess on Belarus railways transporting Russian military equipment to Ukrainian border. It probably stalled, but still didn't prevent Russian military reaching the Ukrainian border through Belarus.
