North Korean soldiers go AWOL after shooting their Russian comrades
Metro via MSN ^ | 21 January 2025 | Sarah Hooper

A manhunt is underway for three North Korean soldiers who allegedly ‘murdered’ five Russian servicemen during friendly fire.

The wanted men were sent to fight with Russia as part of an estimated 11,000-strong contingent dispatched to bolster Vladimir Putin’s armed forces in the war, according to reports.

The three are accused of shooting their Russian comrades – all marines – then going on the run with their army weapons.

The report could not be immediately independently verified, but a poster appearing to show the photos of the wanted North Korean men has been spread online.

They have been missing for more than a week and could be in Kursk, Belgorod, Bryansk, and Oryol regions.

The alleged massacre was in the area of the village of Bolshoye Soldatskoye, in Kursk region, according to Telegram’s The Spy Dossier Channel, with reported links to Russian intelligence.

Maybe the Norks deploying to Kursk isn’t such a bad idea. At this rate, the 8,000 who haven’t (yet) become casualties could take out over thirteen thousand orcs.

It’ll be tough for them to blend in in Russia.

These guys are between a rock and a hard place. Stay on the Ukraine front, get killed on the freezing plain. Go back home, get killed by Mr Kim. Their best bet is to go west and find a way to surrender.

3 guys...phfft. This is underwhelming compared to encirclements and retreats going on along the front. Multiple military watchers are aghast at how Ukrainian soldiers are continually ordered to stay in positions until they can’t get out and must either die or surrender. This has and is happening in multiple hotspots along the front. It’s critical because Ukraine doesn’t have any soldiers to spare.

It’s a way out for the Norks. No doubt they’re East Bound and Down.

“It’ll be tough for them to blend in in Russia.”

Actually it’s quite easy to blend in, when you’re not even there.

LMAO

couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch!

Putin needs to just give up his wish of restoring the soviet empire and crawl back to his own land before it’s too late.

I do not see this as a problem—sounds like more Uke Propaganda. Ghost of Kiev is haunting the poor North Koreans, urging them to kill Russians and escape to freedom by surrendering to Uke Forces. I do not buy it.

Amazing how MSN has embedded journalists right along side the North Koreans as they fight the Ukrainians

It’s really incredible that everyone in this thread assumes this post is true.

Did you check the cited source? A telegram channel I bet no one here has heard of before.

Gullible people

“What’s your name, soldier?”

“I am Nork from Orc!”

I doubt they have a firm knowledge of geography. They’ve got quite the walk to get home.

If they can make it to Kazakhstan they might blend in with the people.

They are already walking dead - there families are. They cannot go to the West, since they know the West will kill them - as Kim has told them since birth. And if the Russians find them, they will be killed and buried in secret.

metmom It’ll be tough for them to blend in in Russia.

Not quite -- if they were in the far east of Russia, it would be very easy as the Russian federation has Ethnic Koreans caled "Koryo-sam" living in the Russian federation - "The 2002 census gave a population of 148,556 Koreans in Russia, of which 75,835 were male and 72,721 female.[31] More than half were living in Asian Russia. Meanwhile, the 2010 census gave a population of 153,156 Koreans in Russia, this time more than half were living in European Russia instead, but Russian Far East remained the federal district with highest number of Koreans."

And even in the ROUGHLY (if one can say 1500 km is roughly) same area you have Kalmykia - which is a republic within the Russian federation that is populated by Kalmyks, i.e. Mongols who came in the 16th century

Putin’s aims until 2022 were even broader - to restore the Tsarist empire.

This is seen in the way he changed the Russian history textbooks since 2002. He also declared a new holiday in 2004 - called Unity Day - which commemorates the defeat of the Poles in 1612 who had been ruling Moscow since 1610

His attempts have been seen in Russian state media etc. talking about the imperial destiny of Russia, while he and his coterie have been robbing the country
