Brave of you to assume a bucket of vodka would remain undrunk in a camp full of bored, conscripted Russians who want to forget that they've been drafted to fight a pointless war.
It's great that whenever these fires happen you never know if it was just Ukrainian Partisans, Anti-Putin Russians, people trying to avoid conscription, or just drunken soldiers being idiots. >

I think it's just lack of basic safety standards (very common in Russia). Looks like they were cooking inside the tent and a spark set it on fire. >

A spark burning down a tent is one thing, but that one tent fire burning the whole camp? Thats some high level incompetence. >

Depends on the material of the tents, distance from each other, and wind. >

And whether that was a bucket of water or vodka
