Babel was poet, not historian. His diary is full of contradictions, it is not credible source. According to Russian version of /info/en/?search=Boris_Kowerda, his name was to Vadim, but Michal Ilich. I guess Bable made up this person, including his first name.

https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Коверда,_Борис_Софронович Вместе с редактором газеты «Беларускае слова» А. В. Павлюкевичем и белогвардейским казачьим есаулом М. И. Яковлевым подготовил покушение на полпреда СССР в Польше П. Л. Войкова, которое должно было стать актом возмездия за участие Войкова в расстреле царской семьи и вообще за красный террор. 7 июня 1927 года Борис Коверда выстрелил в Войкова, в результате чего полпред скончался.

• The troops of Yakovlev were particularly notorious for their cruel and bloody maraudeering of villages and towns in Ukraine and, later, Belarus, and anti-Jewish pogroms in the early 1920s. - when exatly did they begin the pogroms? Were they good guys when in the Red Army?

• No basic data about Vadim Yakovlev.
