More than 20 military offices have been set on fire in Russia since the beginning of the war

According to The Insider , 20 of them are directly arson. There were no similar incidents last year. Molotov cocktails were mainly used.

The arson attacks were not a coordinated campaign, but behind them were a wide variety of groups, from left-wing anarchists and pro-Ukrainian activists to far-right groups, the newspaper writes.

Sometimes attacks were made by individuals who did not associate themselves with any movements. For example, at the end of May, 48-year-old artist and former rural teacher Ilya Farber was arrested for setting fire to two buildings of the military registration and enlistment office in Udmurtia.

“I wanted to know what I can do. Am I capable of… doing this,” he said about his act during interrogation.

It is difficult for the Russian authorities to hush up the facts of arson, because the partisans themselves are actively posting videos about it on social networks. Relevant videos can be easily found.
