North Korean troops in Russia readying for combat in Ukraine war, S.Korea says

North Korea has shipped 1,500 special forces troops to Russia's far east for training and acclimatizing at local military bases and will likely be deployed for combat in the war in Ukraine, South Korea's spy agency said on Friday.

South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS) also said it had been working with Ukrainian intelligence service and had used facial recognition artificial intelligence technology to identify North Korean officers in eastern Ukraine's Donetsk region supporting Russian forces firing North Korean missiles.

In more than 13,000 containers, North Korea has shipped artillery rounds, ballistic missiles and anti-tank rockets to Russia since August last year, the agency said, based on the remnants of weapons recovered from the battle front in Ukraine.

In all, more than eight million artillery and rocket rounds have been shipped to Russia, it said. "The direct military cooperation between Russia and North Korea that has been reported by foreign media has now been officially confirmed," the spy agency said in a statement.

Earlier, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol called an unscheduled security meeting with key intelligence, military and national security officials to discuss North Korean troops' involvement in Russia's war against Ukraine, Yoon's office said.

"The participants ... shared the view that the current situation where Russia and North Korea's closer ties have gone beyond the movement of military supplies to actual dispatch of troops is a grave security threat not only to our country but to the international community," it said.

North Korean conscripts. Pretty sure we know where that fits in the scale of effective fighting forces.

I see you’ve desperately resorted to a new “NORK!, NORK!, NORK!” campaign. I guess we can look forward to a flood of these posts here.

Great news! South Korea is a vital US interest, and any Norks in Ukraine are not a threat to South Korea.

Feel sorry for the cats and dogs in Russia. Russia loves them, Norks eat them.

North Koreans are ordered to hand over ‘decadent and bourgeois’ pet dogs for ‘restaurant meat’ as the country is rocked by food shortages

Dictator Kim Jong-un announced in July that owning a pet is now against the law

Authorities are identifying homes with dogs in Pyongyang and rounding them up

Some of the dogs are sent to state-run zoos or sold to dog meat restaurants

In the remake of Red Dawn, the Norks were the invaders.

Originally, it was supposed to be the ChiComs, but of course Hollywood kisses ChiCom ass.

In the original Red Dawn, the ChiComs were the good guys.

Awesome!

This will help the Ukrainian defense lines to crumble faster and kill off North Koreans at the same time!

It's win, win!
