A London court convicts two men over a plot last year involving arson attacks on properties linked to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Multiple outlets report that the men were found guilty of conspiracy to damage property after being tied to fires that targeted two homes associated with Starmer and a car linked to him. The attacks are described as occurring in May 2025 and as causing damage but not injuring anyone. The reports say the fires damaged the home Starmer moved out of after becoming prime minister, as well as an apartment building he once owned a share in, and destroyed a former Toyota SUV connected to him. The convicted individuals are identified by some sources, including Ukrainian national Roman Lavrynovych, 22, and Stanislav Carpiuc, described as a 27-year-old Romanian citizen. One outlet also notes that the case has prompted questions about possible foreign interference in British public life, though the reporting summarized here focuses on the court’s finding of guilt. Sentencing is scheduled for later following the convictions.
