The article describes in detail the activities of two Soviet subversive-intelligence Partisan units in the Orava region, which organizationally belonged under the Main Intelligence Administration of the General Staff of the Red Army – GRU. It describes in detail their wandering through Polish territory until their arrival in Orava. Unlike the para-troop organisational groups organised by the Ukrainian Partisan Movement Headquarters in Kiev, in their case there were numerous partisan units crossing the front line in Poland and reaching Slovakia after a two month journey and overcoming hundreds of kilometres. Unlike other subversive-intelligence groups, they were also actively engaged in active combat. Partisan Battalion No. 0032, of Cpt. P.S. Tichonov and Partisan Unit of Special Assignment No. 14, of Maj. V.P. Jaromov contributed greatly to the defence of the position of the Orava military group in Lučivná and had a great merit in stabilising the defence position in the Kraľovany-Párnica-Istebné line, where they participated in a number of battles. In the case of the Partisan Unit No. 0032, of Cpt. P.S. Tichonov, new facts are provided here about their short operation in the insurgent territory. It also details its activities after the suppression of the Uprising and its return to Orava. It provides new insights into their activities in Roháče, their participation in the defence of this territory in December 1944. There are also unpublished facts about their activities in the area of the Polish Tatras.
