Intelligence sources say a battalion of 3,000 has been secretly training to fight against Ukraine
A battalion of 3,000 North Korean soldiers will shortly join Russian troops in fighting Ukraine, marking Pyongyang’s full entry into the war.
Intelligence sources said the unit has been secretly training in Russia’s Far East ahead of deployment as part of a Russian airborne regiment.
“They are called the Buryat Battalion,” a senior Ukrainian military source told Politico. Buryatia is a remote region of Russia bordering Mongolia that the Kremlin has targeted heavily for military recruitment.
The Kyiv Independent quoted another Western intelligence source claiming that North Korea had sent 10,000 soldiers to join the Russian army.
Any North Korean soldiers captured should be held prisoner in some Scandinavian prison and fed nothing but the most decadent and tasty foods. Then when the war is over send them back to NK fatter than Kim Jon Un. That would be a real power play.
The great Russian army. The great russian army with the best weapons and tanks and soldiers.
What a paper tiger.
BTW it's rumored that they are running out of both tanks and bmps. If trump doesn't win (if he does, it will just take longer) the whole russia will collapse like the soviet union did in 1991. The ruble is already in free fall, inflation at 20%, the economy is overheating and fewer and fewer young people left to work or be killed.
I just hope it crumbles as soon as possible but I guess this insane war has to drag on for some 6 months to a year.
If Putin does something stupid that elicits a direct response from the U.S., Kim will regret going all-in on this. We could use a good excuse to make the NK problem go away.
Regerts .... The average height is 5ft 4in in North Korea. In Ukraine that's 5ft 8in. Not that it's super important, but it could be.
Also imagine coming regretfully into some else's war and having to walk around a whole bunch of blow-up buildings full of dead ruzzians. If that doesn't double up regerts I don't know what else other than getting injured might.
