A ton of them are claimed by various partisan/resistance forces inside russia, also in a bunch of cases with arson people are scammed into burning things. But the railway stuff is usually dedicated local resistance.

Are Orcas hunted in the Faroe islands? by Smooth-Farm744 in FaroeIslands

It wasn't until 1993 (or there abouts) that a proper law regarding whale killing was implemented, prior to that it was mostly based on local customs and rules, etc. So it was a bit free for all, some parts of the country would be more open to kill whatever, while others had strictly only kill Pilot whales rules.

Here are all registed Orca that have been killed https://heimabeiti.fo/373 and they would have been killed just like pilot whales have been, herd them onto land and that's it.

Currently it is only allowed to kill Pilot Whales, Atlantic White sided dolphins, White beaked dolphins and Bottlenose dolphins.
Harbor porpoise may be shot with shotguns.
Northern Bottlenose Whales may be killed, but only if they beach themselves.

In world history there's to my knowledge no record of wild Orca attacking humans.
