3 weeks agoCroydon man led arson attacks in London on behalf of Russia
Jake Reeves, 23, helped recruit others from Croydon for arson, causing around £1 million in damages to supplies stored for Ukraine. He was recruited by Dylan Earl, 21, who connected with the Wagner Group, a military organization tied to the Russian state. Five men have been convicted for their involvement in the March 20, 2024 fires, which endangered the public. Authorities highlighted the serious implications of these acts as examples of hostile agents acting on behalf of Russia.
