North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been seen mourning over his soldiers believed to have been killed in the Russia-Ukraine war, images aired by state media showed on Tuesday.

Aired by Korean Central Television, the images showed Kim solemnly placing a North Korean flag over a coffin during a ceremony for the return of the remains of North Korean soldiers who were deployed and killed in the conflict.

The images showed photos of Kim in the background footage during a joint cultural event co-hosted by North Korea and Russia in Pyongyang on Sunday, marking the first anniversary of the signing of their "comprehensive strategic partnership" treaty.

North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui was also seen with Kim in the photos.

One image showed Kim placing both hands on the coffin, with his lips tightly pressed.

Photos of North Korean soldiers were also shown alongside Russian troops, and of a blood-stained notebook believed to belong to a North Korean soldier retrieved from the battleground in Russia's Kursk region.

Russia's Culture Minister Olga Lyubimova, who was among those present at the event, wiping away her tears, as were several other people in the audience.

Participants, including Kim, were seen wearing winter clothing, suggesting the event likely took place months ago and that the remains may have begun returning as early as last winter.

North Korea deployed thousands of soldiers to aid Russia in the Ukraine war, following the signing of a partnership pact by Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim in Pyongyang in June last year.

Last week, the South Korean intelligence agency claimed that North Korea is likely to send more troops to Russia in the next two months.

This article assumes that Kim has the capacity to mourn anyone.

Yeah. I’ll bet.

I’m surprised he’s not killing the families of the dead soldiers as punishment for those soldiers for dying without permission.

I hope the North Koreans have a lot of dead and wounded from their involvement in Ukraine.

Watched a video on the UTOOB of a couple of NORKS running across a field, clearly ‘lost’ and scared shitless.

They jumped into a shell crater.

Then you see a drone dripping thermite into the crater - nobody comes out.

Drones bring a whole new dimension to warfare.....

Only way his soldiers get home is in a box.

Mourning ...I call BS

He knew they’d never come back when he sent them to a feudalist nation to fight for an oligarch tyrant.

Lafff. Shows how pathetic some leaders are. Oh, they’re both KGB proteges. No surprise and no F given remorse of their leaders when their spiritual depravity is laid bare for the world to see.
