Adding kettle and toaster must have been taught by the British.

I just want to say that the fact that Ukraine was able to pull off the operation using trucks deep in Russia means that Ukraine has moles in Kremlin. That means there are still significant numbers of Russians who are opposed to Putin, which is great.

What's nicer to think of is Putin just know this and is now living in Paranoia hell.

I thought there was at least a mildly significant partisan movement in Russia for years now. Some of the sabotage that has been going on was reported as such. I recall a Russian partisan company straight up defecting to Ukraine.

Most Russians would not dare to publicly opppse Putin though. Kremlin do assassinations of opposition and/or killing family members. The best that these opposition could do is clandestine, which involves spying for Ukraine or sabotaging as you mentioned.
