Ukraine Uses Psychological Warfare Against North Korean Troops
Ukraine’s “I Want to Live” campaign targets North Korean troops fighting alongside Russia, utilizing leaflets and videos to encourage surrender. These materials, distributed along the front lines, provide instructions on how to safely surrender and highlight potential benefits such as shelter and food. The campaign, initially focused on Russian soldiers, leverages the possibility of escape from Kim Jong Un’s regime as an incentive. Reports suggest up to 12,000 North Korean soldiers have been deployed to support Russia’s war effort, prompting Ukraine’s psychological operation.
