President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in an interview with the Japanese edition of Kyodo News that North Korea is gaining military knowledge and experience through its role in the war of the aggressor country russia against Ukraine. According to him, about 10,000 North Korean soldiers are currently learning how to conduct modern hybrid warfare while in russia.
"About 10,000 North Korean soldiers are now on the territory of Russia. It is extremely dangerous that they are gaining knowledge of modern hybrid warfare. They are learning how to counter missiles, different types of drones, including fiber-optic drones, from FPV to long-range drones. They are now training on Russian territory because we are responding to Russian attacks. So they have this opportunity," the President said.
Zelenskyy also emphasized that eventually these soldiers will bring the experience and knowledge gained in russia back home to North Korea.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, according to the Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the DPRK army contingent continues to participate in russia's criminal war against Ukraine. North Korean soldiers, in particular, fire from cannon artillery and multiple launch rocket systems, perform aerial reconnaissance, artillery reconnaissance, and adjust MLRS strikes.
