17 oct. 1919 - MOAP expands with agents through the cheka. plan for even more ambitious bombing - the entire soviet government in the Kremlin

Description:

MOAP set up a wide network of agents. In particular the leader of the
combat group Sobolev had agents in the VCK and the Kremlin.
It's likely his group was preparing a terrorist act against the Chekists.
Thus a certain employee of the VCK passed on to the anarchists the
address of a hostel where dozens of secret agents of the MChK and
VCLK were living. Despite all sorts of precautions (MOAP was
structured on the principle of groups of seven), a second employee
of the VCHK, a certain Katya, was let in on all the secrets of the orga-
nization which could only carry out its goals with the participation
of Chekists in its work. Thus it was planned to blow up the Kremlin
along with the whole Soviet government. According to Sobolev's
calculations this would require one tonne of pyroxylin, and the explosion was postponed until this amount could be accumulated.
The demolition of the Sovnarkom was planned for the 2nd anniver-
sary of the October Revolution. Explosives were transported from
Bryansk, Tula, and
Nizhny Novgorod,
and were stored in a
warehouse in Odin-
stovo. In addition, a
bomb laboratory was
set up in a dacha in
Kraskovo,
