Engineers said to be supporting missile launches and reports of North Koreans killed near Donetsk
North Korean military engineers have been deployed to help Russia target Ukraine with ballistic missiles, and North Koreans operating in occupied areas of Ukraine have already been killed, senior officials in Kyiv and Seoul said.
There are dozens of North Koreans behind Russian lines, in teams that “support launcher systems for KN-23 missiles”, a source in Ukraine told the Guardian.
Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, last year travelled to Russia for a summit with Vladimir Putin where the two men bolstered their deepening ties with a secret arms deal.
Pyongyang’s ammunition shipments were vital in allowing Russian forces to advance in a grinding war of attrition in eastern Ukraine this summer. But it appears increasingly clear that the agreement went beyond supplying materiel.
Dumb dumb dumb
Don’t play this “I didn’t say the exact magic words so I never said it at all” game with me. Everyone reading this sees your messaging. Ukraine sided with nobody, Ukraine was attacked and is the victim.
Only idiots think there are two sides to an inexcusable invasion based on lies. Go put your helmet back on
Your critical analytical skills aren‘t the best. I never said that Ukraine shouldn‘t accept the aid. But just like Ukraine is accepting aid from questionable states like Germany, Poland, USA. Russia can get aid from questionable states like China and North Korea.
But the first category of questionable countries are there to protect the world, spread freedom and democracy!! While the latter are bad bad bad terrible guys.
