A BBC investigation reveals that Russian operatives orchestrated arson attacks targeting UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer through a Ukrainian builder, Roman Lavrynovych. The attacks were part of a broader campaign of sabotage linked to a young Russian diplomat, Evgeny Lyukshin, who offered financial incentives for further acts of vandalism. The Russian embassy denied any involvement, while the trial of the attackers focused on financial motives, leaving the true orchestrators unaddressed.
