sep 14, 1920 - violent ex's carried out in Denikin's rear, while official confiscations carried out in liberated zone. one raid sees all officers and bourgeois shot at railway station, with other events similar.

Description:

Thus on September 14, 1919, one of the ter-
rorist groups of the Kontrrazvedka carried
out a raid on Pyatikhatka Station and shot
all the officers and "bourgeois" in the sta-
tion and on board a passing "Alexandrovsk
- Yekaterinoslav" train. In similar fash-
ion, Miroshevsky recalled a whole series of
armed attacks by the insurgents on troops
trains and the major railway stations around
September 1919. Expropriations meant
bank robberies with the goal of obtaining the financial means to sup-
port the Insurgent Army. So, parallel with the official confiscation of
money from banks in the Liberated Zone, 'underground expropria-
tors" of the Makhnovist Kontrrazvedka carried out bank robberies
in the Denikinist rear: in Rostov, Taganrog, and Melitopol.
