According to Russian Defense Ministry Spokesperson Igor Konashenkov, a high-precision attack by the Russian Armed Forces in western Ukraine killed up to 180 foreign mercenaries and destroyed huge amounts of foreign weaponry.

Konashenkov revealed that "up to 180 foreign mercenaries and a large amount of foreign weapons were destroyed," resulting from the strike on Ukrainian military centers in Starychi and a nearby training camp in Yavoriv. 

The Spokesperson described how the military bases and training grounds included a camp for foreign mercenaries and operated as a depot for weapons brought to Ukraine from overseas.

On Wednesday, US senators approved nearly $14 billion in aid for Ukraine, and Russia has cautioned the West yesterday against "mindlessly pumping weapons" into Ukraine.
