Moscow: A high precision strike of the Russian Armed Forces killed up to 180 foreign mercenaries and destroyed large amounts of foreign weapons in western Ukraine, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said Sunday.
As a result of the strike on Ukrainian military centers in Starychi and a nearby training ground in Yavoriv district, “up to 180 foreign mercenaries and a large amount of foreign weapons were destroyed,” Konashenkov said.
The military centers and the training ground hosted a camp for foreign mercenaries and served as a warehouse for weapons that are being sent to Ukraine from abroad, Konashenkov said.Â
