As reported by NBN with reference to the material of the Yonhap News agency, the DPRK has transferred soldiers and teenagers, whose age does not exceed 20 years, to the territory of Russia.
The National Intelligence Service claims that the North Koreans have already mastered the basic combat training necessary for acting as an “assault corps”, and for this reason, the DPRK soldiers should not be underestimated. In addition, Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the DPRK Kim Yong Bok will arrive at the front line in Ukraine, accompanied by an “advance detachment” – this military “close aide” of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.
Also, South Korean intelligence in Seoul reported that the information they received allows them to assume that the redeployment of North Korean troops to Kursk is “inevitable”.
In addition to all of the above, since the beginning of this year, Pyongyang has sent about 4,000 workers to Russia, who are guaranteed a salary of $800.
