YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

North Korea has confirmed it sent 10,000–14,000 troops to support Russia in the Ukraine war, the country's largest overseas military deployment since the Korean War. The deployment is part of a 2024 mutual defense treaty signed by Kim Jong Un and Vladimir Putin, which obligates both nations to provide immediate military assistance if either is attacked. North Korean troops reportedly helped Russian forces 'liberate' the Kursk region, though Ukraine denies Russian control of the area. Intelligence from the U.S., South Korea, and Ukraine confirms the troop numbers, with reports of heavy casualties and reinforcements sent. Russia has indicated it could reciprocate with military support for North Korea if needed, highlighting deepening strategic ties. The alliance and North Korea's involvement have raised international concerns about escalation and the evolving dynamics of the Ukraine conflict.
