North Korea has confirmed that at least 30 of its troops have been injured or killed in Russia’s Kursk region, Ukraine. This revelation marks a significant escalation in the conflict and comes after months of speculation over Pyongyang’s involvement in the war.
According to Ukrainian authorities, the wounded North Korean soldiers are believed to be part of a larger Russian force deployed to support Moscow’s efforts in Ukraine. The incident has raised concerns about the increasing role of non-Russian forces in the conflict.
Details of the incident are still emerging, but it is clear that the involvement of North Korean troops has significant implications for the ongoing war in Ukraine.
