Three men have been found guilty of an arson attack on a business that supplied Starlink satellite equipment to Ukraine, in what prosecutors said was a plot linked to the proscribed Wagner Group.

A jury at London’s Old Bailey court on July 8 convicted Nii Mensah, Jakeem Rose, and Ugnius Asmena of aggravated arson with intent to endanger life. They had denied the charges. A fourth man, Paul English, 61, was acquitted.
