A contingent of the DPRK army continues to participate in Russia’s criminal war against Ukraine on the side of the aggressor.

This was reported by the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine on February 4.

North Korean personnel are located in Russia’s Kursk region, from where they carry out attacks on Ukrainian border communities.

They conduct fire with tube artillery and multiple-launch rocket systems, carry out aerial reconnaissance and artillery reconnaissance, and adjust MLRS strikes.

A focus on mastering unmanned technologies and gaining experience in modern warfare is a distinctive feature and one of the key objectives of the DPRK army’s participation in the Russia–Ukraine war.

Under the agreements between Moscow and Pyongyang, personnel deployed in the Kursk region are regularly rotated.

Since the beginning of the North Korean contingent’s involvement in the war against Ukraine, about three thousand soldiers have already returned to the DPRK — trained and experienced.

Most of them become military instructors in order to transfer the acquired modern warfare skills to the entire DPRK army.
