On this day, 12 June 1942, Russian revolutionary Anna Yakimova died in Novosibirisk aged 86. A member of the People’s Will group in the late 1800s, she agitated in factories where she worked, manufactured explosives for her group and took part in several attempts to assassinate the Tsar.
She was also repeatedly arrested, jailed, tortured and sent to Siberia but she survived, eventually being freed during the 1917 revolution.
This is an account of her fascinating life: https://libcom.org/history/yakimova-anna-1856-1942 https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1448940521957760/?type=3
