Zelenskyy: The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have once again pulled North Korean soldiers for assaults in the Kursk region

This was reported in the evening address by the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

"In the Kursk operation areas, new attacks occurred: Russian troops... and once again involved North Korean soldiers. A significant portion of the occupiers was liquidated. We are talking about hundreds of Russian and North Korean military personnel," Zelenskyy said.

According to him, this is important because the fights are taking place on Russian territory to prevent increasing the threat to Ukrainian cities.

"And on our territory, on the front line, 60,000 Russian soldiers in the Kursk region. These are 60,000 that have not joined the already considerable occupying forces in the Pokrovsk and other directions in the Donetsk region. I am grateful to all our warriors for their resilience, to each brigade for the results," the president noted.
