Didn't spend much time on it, but the valve covers remind me of the later Scania engines.

Zil, Ural, or a Kraz???

It is a Russian military truck. Mostly used in the DDR(?) region.

Kraz 255 Cargo. Engine has around 350 BHP I think.

Forget about trying to read the engine data plate. Its all in Russian (Cyrillic).
