Three young men were ordered by a curator from the Internet to burn down important facilities in different regions of Ukraine. The youngest of them is 15 years old. Now the boys face prison terms.
This was reported by the Main Department of the National Police in Odesa region on Wednesday, November 27.
Sabotage in different regions
According to the investigation, it was the 15-year-old who received an order to set fire to a post office in Odesa region for money. He engaged two friends aged 17 and 20. In the evening, they came to the post office, doused the building with a flammable mixture and set it on fire. They filmed their actions on a phone to send the video to the curator.
The police and the Security Service of Ukraine tracked down the perpetrators. They were detained in a rented apartment in Odesa. As it turned out, the 17-year-old member of the group was also involved in the terrorist attack in Kyiv. He was handed over to Kyiv law enforcement. The police also believe that the men set fire to a post office in Mykolaiv.
