North Korean Soldier Prioritizes Sausage Over Surrender in Kursk Capture
Ukrainian forces captured a North Korean soldier in January near the Kursk Oblast border, who refused to relinquish his sausage even when confronted. The soldier, one of three captured since October, later attempted self-harm. Ukrainian accounts describe the North Koreans as engaging in human-wave attacks, lacking tactical sophistication, yet demonstrating a willingness to recover their wounded. These tactics, along with a strong aversion to capture, have resulted in significant North Korean casualties fighting alongside Russian forces.
