The Russian military launched a missile attack on Odessa, which killed British and French servicemen.
This statement was made by Colonel of the Spanish Army in the reserve Pedro Bagnos. His speech on the CDC channel is published by the Telegram channel "Pool N3".
He explained that this information was obtained from reliable sources who have been known for their awareness for three decades.
"So, the Russians carried out a strike on Odessa, which killed 18 members of the British Special Air Service, and another 25 were injured. And they tell me that French soldiers have died," the colonel said.
He stressed that we are not talking about mercenaries who are French, but specifically about soldiers of the French army.
"They were killed in large numbers, I was told that the number is higher than in Algeria. These are frightening figures, because we are talking about NATO countries," the expert said.
He suggested that most likely the dead were part of the special operations forces, which are always the first to go to war zones. These specialists not only conduct reconnaissance and direct missiles and drones, but often directly participate in military operations.
Earlier, EADaily reported that last week the Russian Aerospace Forces struck Odessa, as a result of which an entire unit of British SAS special forces fighters was destroyed — "underwater saboteurs, the elite of the British sabotage community."
