Russia claims Israeli mercenaries fighting alongside Azov forces

The Spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said Israeli mercenaries were fighting “shoulder to shoulder” with the Ukrainian forces in Azov.

Zakharova claimed she saw “video, facts, materials” that confirm this. However, she did not provide details about these materials.

“How to deal with this? … How can this be?” Zakharova said on the air at Radio Sputnik.  

She added that the Israeli politicians "are unlikely to want to hear" this information, which "have now inflated the information campaign".
