Reports from TASS indicate that Russian special forces have allegedly neutralized several foreign mercenaries in the Bryansk region, with one identified as a U.S. Army Ranger officer from the elite 75th Ranger Regiment, part of the Army Special Operations Command (USASOC). The operation reportedly took place near Russia’s border, targeting individuals involved in hostile activities within the region.
Details of the alleged connection between these individuals and recent diplomatic visits, including one to Israel involving U.S. officials, remain unverified by independent sources, and the U.S. Department of Defense has not commented on the report.
