1906 Suppression of the Sveaborg Uprising
110 years ago, on August 2, 1906, in the fortress of Sveaborg (Finland), the tsarist troops suppressed an armed uprising of Russian soldiers and sailors, which had begun two days earlier. The leaders of the uprising in Sveaborg were the Bolsheviks - staff captain Sergei Zion and second lieutenants Arkady Yemelyanov and Yevgeny Kokhansky. About 150 Finnish warriors came to their aid.
