According to the Ministry of Defense, Russian forces attacked a Ukrainian special forces training center early Sunday, killing more than 100 local troops and foreign mercenaries.
He claimed the mercenaries were on the ground at the Ukrainian Special Operations Forces training center near Ovruch in the northern Zhytomyr Region, which had been targeted by “high-precision air-launched missiles.”
