North Korea is reportedly preparing to send more troops to Russia to fuel the war in Ukraine, even after significant losses, the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) reported.

South Korea's military said on Friday that it suspects North Korea is preparing to send more troops to Russia to fight Ukrainian forces, even after suffering losses and seeing some of its soldiers captured.

Soldiers fighting for Ukraine describe facing relentless waves of determined North Korean troops, Russian units with improved tactics, and Ukraine’s own struggles with exhaustion and sinking morale.

North Korea and Russia's deepening military relationship has sounded alarm in South Korea and the United States.

Kim Jong Un's soldiers have joined the Russians in the war against Ukraine. Although North Korean military personnel are dying in large numbers in the battles, they have developed a method for destroying Ukrainian drones.
