Military from North Korea are already in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, in particular in Donetsk, the head of the Center for countering disinformation Andriy Kovalenko said on television , reported Ukrinform.
In his words, these soldiers have not yet participated in the war because they are from the engineering troops. But soon they will be used.
"These North Korean soldiers will be in Russian uniforms, with Russian documents, mixed with Kalmyks and Buryats," Kovalenko emphasized.
"At least we know about the enemy's plans to do this, first in the Donetsk region," he said.
Kovalenko noted that after their "introduction" they will be located in other areas.
"10-12,000 DPRK soldiers per direction will help the Russians to be withdrawn from that direction and transferred to the east, specifically in the Kharkiv region. Therefore, the threat posed by the DPRK army should not be underestimated," he added.
As reported, according to the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, in November, 11 thousand servicemen from the DPRK will be ready to be used in battles on the side of the Russian Federation, and they are currently training at training grounds in Russia.< /p>
