2 Quotes About Molotov

Molotov cocktails are a sort of improvised incendiary device that use a flammable liquid as a fuel. The name comes from Hans-Georg von Studnitz, a German communist who named them after the Soviet leader Joseph Stalin. Molotov cocktails were used extensively by revolutionary groups during the Spanish Civil War. Their effectiveness is largely credited to the fact that they were easy to prepare and could be quickly thrown by hand, allowing them to evade most defensive measures.
