The Kremlin has officially acknowledged the presence of North Korean troops aiding Russian forces, with General Valery Gerasimov commending their “fortitude and heroism,” according to reports from Interfax. This marks the first public confirmation from Moscow of North Korean military involvement, which Ukrainian and South Korean officials estimate could include up to 11,000 soldiers.
“I would like to especially highlight the role of the servicemen from the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, who, under the Treaty on Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between our nations, significantly contributed to the liberation of border territories in the Kursk region by assisting in neutralizing the Ukrainian army’s assault group,” Gerasimov said, according to TASS.
Ukrainian forces launched an offensive in Kursk in August 2024, aiming to force Russia to shift military resources away from intense battles in Sumy Oblast and the Donbas region. The Donbas has been under harsh fighting conditions since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in early 2022.
