The Committee of Bashkir Resistance was a Bashkir nationalist resistance movement which was founded on 21 September 2022. The committee originated as an anonymous Telegram channel which was founded on the same day as Russian president Vladimir Putin's announcement of a partial mobilization amid the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the group joined the broader partisan movement against Putin's regime, setting fire to United Russia offices and registration offices in several cities. Militants also spread leaflets in the Bashkir capital of Ufa, urging them to go underground to fight Putin's government.
