Details: According to the known information, the arson took place around 3:00.
A man wearing black clothing and a facemask threw two bottles of Molotov cocktails at the building of the military enlistment office on Komsomolska Street and fled.

Only one bottle caught fire: it hit the window of the Social Fund, which is located in the same building.

According to Shot, two square metres of plastic ceiling cladding burned down there. The premises of military enlistment office allegedly were not damaged. Currently, the police are trying to identify the arsonist and are considering an issue of opening a criminal case.
