Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[REGNUM] On July 6, 1918, the German ambassador to the RSFSR, Count Wilhelm von Mirbach, was killed. His name was often heard at the Fifth Congress of Soviets and on its sidelines as a symbol of violence and German imperialism.

The murderers of the German diplomat were Ya. G. Blyumkin and N. A. Andreev, who arrived with documents from the Cheka "in connection with a case directly related to the Ambassador."
