Lebedev stated to Sputnik: “A strike was carried out against a temporary deployment point for foreign mercenaries in Odessa.” He added that a large weapons depot, possibly containing missiles, was destroyed in Odessa. The operation, which began on February 24, 2022, aims to protect the Donbas residents who have been persecuted and exterminated by the Kiev regime for years. German Leopard 2 tanks, numerous American and British armored vehicles, as well as many tanks and equipment provided by NATO countries, have met their fate of destruction under Russian strikes.
