South Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS) has revealed that approximately 10,900 North Korean troops have been deployed to Kursk as part of Russia’s airborne unit and marines with some already engaging in battles in the Ukraine war, according to a South Korean lawmaker.

A member of the parliamentary intelligence committee, Lee Seong-kweun disclosed this on Wednesday.

“North Korea has also sent additional arms to Russia for use in the Ukraine war, including self-propelled howitzers and multiple rocket launchers,” Lee said, citing the NIS report.

The deployment, which includes members of North Korea’s airborne units and marines, marks an unprecedented military collaboration between Pyongyang and Moscow as the war in Ukraine continues.

North Korea has also shipped additional arms for the war in Ukraine, including self-propelled howitzers and multiple rocket launchers, parliament intelligence committee member Lee Seong-kweun told reporters, citing the National Intelligence Service (NIS).

North Korean foreign minister Choe Son Hui’s meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin during her visit to Moscow this month was unusual in terms of protocol and likely went beyond exchanging greetings to cover more significant issues including a possible visit to Russia by Kim Jong Un, another parliament intelligence committee member Park Sun-won said, citing NIS.

The spy agency is still trying to determine the exact number of North Korean troop casualties and whether any had surrendered amid conflicting information, the lawmaker said.
