Russia plans to attack the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region with a large group of tens of thousands of troops, including North Koreans.
As an anonymous American official told CNN, the new offensive could begin in the coming days. One of the Ukrainian commanders reported that the DPRK troops are participating in battles in the Kursk region, as well as in defensive operations in the Belgorod region and in the occupied territories of Ukraine:
"Basically, the tasks are defined as the second echelon of defense. In the Kursk region, these are direct combat operations. These groups will be involved in combat operations on the territory of Ukraine in the near future."
The serviceman added that among the personnel of the foreign troops there are artillery specialists and snipers. Their participation in the defense allows the occupiers to transfer their soldiers to the offensive in other areas of the front. Subsequently, they themselves are used in direct combat operations.
"In military terms, these are three full-fledged brigades. Imagine that the enemy now removes 10,000 soldiers from the second line of defense, puts soldiers from North Korea there, and sends these three brigades to one of the places where active military operations are taking place. Are three full-fledged brigades a significant resource? Yes, this is a significant resource," he said.
