Don’t underestimate North Korean troops in Russia, ex-soldiers tell BBC | BBC News


“Their mission is to infiltrate enemy lines.”

Former North Korean soldiers have given their insight on the condition of thousands of troops deployed to the frontline in Russia’s war against Ukraine.

The North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un, has reportedly sent around 11,000 troops to help Russian forces reclaim part of its Kursk region taken by Ukraine.

Washington and Kyiv say the soldiers have now entered the fight "in significant numbers" and Seoul says more than a 100 had already been injured or killed.

However, defectors and other military experts have told the BBC these troops should not be underestimated.
