Summary

About 8,000 North Korean troops are in Russia’s Kursk region, ready to join the war with weaponry provided by Moscow, including AK-12 rifles, RPG-7s, and night vision equipment. These troops have been trained by Russian forces in artillery and infantry tactics.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called for Western allies to allow long-range strikes, proposing Ukraine could preemptively target the North Korean forces if equipped with necessary weaponry.
