North Korea Arms Russia: 70 Missile Launchers Sent to Kursk Oblast
Ukrainian intelligence reports that North Korea has supplied Russia with 50 self-propelled howitzers and 20 multiple launch rocket systems, some of which have been deployed to the Kursk Oblast. This follows reports of 11,000 North Korean troops training alongside Russian forces, and previous deliveries of millions of artillery shells. These shipments bolster Russia’s military efforts amidst dwindling supplies and Western sanctions. The deepening Russia-North Korea alliance contrasts with South Korea’s growing support for Ukraine, including the consideration of lethal aid.
