South Korean Defense Minister Kim Jong Hen in an interview with Yonhap said North Korea could send members of his armed forces to Ukraine to support the Russian army. He noted that a mutual treaty similar to a military union signed between Russia and North Korea increases the likelihood of such deployment.
Kim added that information about the elimination of the North Korean military in the occupied territories of Ukraine, which appeared earlier is probably true. This statement was heard against the background of the DPRK's intentions to strengthen relations with Russia, which is confirmed by the mutual defense agreement signed between the North Korean leader Kim Cenn and Russian President Vladimir Putin this year.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed six North Korea officers in the Donbass, and three more servicemen were injured. Kyiv Post reports that before this attack, Russian invaders demonstrated the North Korean military preparation for assault.
The Chairman of the Council of Reservists of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces Ivan Timochko pointed to a potential threat from the military DPRK not only for Ukraine but also for other countries. "North Korea is a madly militarized country, and the loss of several people is not critical there. However, it is important that military DPRK who could gain information or skills are now destroyed and not bearers of valuable knowledge," he explained.
