Ukraine Repels North Korean-Backed Assault in Kursk
Ukraine successfully repelled an initial North Korean and Russian assault near Malaya Loknya in the Kursk region, suffering losses but inflicting heavy casualties, estimated at 200, on the invading forces through counterattacks and drone strikes. The North Koreans, described as disciplined but used as “cannon fodder” by Russia, exhibited human wave tactics and suffered from communication issues with their Russian counterparts. Despite this initial success, Ukraine faces a persistent threat from approximately 11,000 North Korean soldiers deployed in the region, highlighting an urgent need for increased military aid.
