HENICHESK (Sputnik) - UK instructors trained Ukrainian soldiers at their military base to attack the town of Sudzha in Russia's Kursk Region, a defected Ukrainian soldier has told Sputnik.
"Several British instructors, in the presence of interpreters, trained us to fire the NLAW grenade launcher at a special training range in Downholme [village in North Yorkshire, England]. After the training, we were to be sent to the town of Sudzha in the
Kursk Region," the soldier said.
