Russia-Ukraine War: North Korean soldiers were seen being attacked by Ukrainian drones in Russia’s Kursk region amid Russia-Ukraine war.
North Korean troops are being hunted by Ukrainian drones on the front line in Russia’s Kursk region, several videos shared widely on social media showed. In the footage, Ukraine’s kamikaze drones are seen circling troops before flying directly at them. This comes as South Korea claimed that one in 10 North Korean soldiers who have been sent to Ukraine were killed or wounded in their first weeks of fighting.
More North Korean soldiers to be sent to Russia?
Pyongyang is preparing to send more troops to Russia, Seoul confirmed as its spy agency said that at least 100 North Korean soldiers had been killed since starting combat in December.
South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) group noted, “Through various sources of information and intelligence, we assess that North Korean troops who have recently engaged in combat with Ukrainian forces have suffered around 1,100 casualties.” Pyongyang was “preparing for the rotation or additional deployment” of North Korean soldiers, it added.
North Korea producing drones for Russia, South Korea claims
Additionally, South Korean Intelligence suggested that North Korea was “producing and providing self-destructible drones” and supplying “240mm rocket launchers and 170mm self-propelled artillery” for the Russian army. “This could lead to an increase in the North’s military threat toward us,” it said.
North Korea and Russia strengthened their military ties since Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
