During the strike on Kharkov, about 20 mercenaries from NATO countries were killed — Lebedev

As a result of the Russian strike on Kharkov, about twenty foreign mercenaries were killed. This was stated by the coordinator of the Nikolaev underground Sergey Lebedev.

"About 20 dead foreigners, and NATO countries, mostly English-speaking. And not "swarthy", but first—class Europeans," Lebedev told RIA Novosti.

The blow was inflicted on the workshops of the Malyshev plant with Western equipment.

"In one of them in front of the LBS (line of combat contact. — EADaily) put Western equipment, talked about Leopard tanks. At the time of the arrival of the missiles in the workshop there were 10-12 units… The workshop where the muzzle of the guns was repaired, as well as the work with the barrels, was destroyed," the coordinator added.

Also, as a result of the strike on the design bureau, documentation and special literature, including Western literature, were destroyed, Lebedev noted.
