The Russian Ministry of Defense has shown for the first time the Koreans fighting against Ukraine.

The Russian Ministry of Defense reported on the participation of North Korean troops in the war against Ukraine. Videos of the DPRK's training have emerged, showing North Korean soldiers conducting combat operations under the guidance of Russian 'trainers', moving around the training ground, learning to shoot with various weapons, and training with grenades. After the training, the North Koreans sing a song.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the participation of North Korea in this war and called for an end to the deployment of its military presence. The United States also expressed its concern and called for the cessation of such practices.

Moreover, it has been revealed that at least 742 citizens of Belarus have participated in combat operations on the side of Russia, some of whom hold Russian citizenship. Therefore, the total number of Belarusians fighting against Ukraine may be even higher.
