North Korea plans to send an additional 25-30 thousand troops to Russia in the coming months, according to an analysis by the Ukrainian special services. According to Kiev, these troops may be involved not only in Russia, but also directly in the fighting in Ukraine, which will significantly strengthen the Russian group in certain areas of the front.
These new forces will join a contingent of about 11,000 North Korean troops already in Russia, who arrived last year to support the Russian army. It is reported that about 4,000 of them have already been killed or injured in the fighting, mainly in the Kursk region, where they took part in local operations along with Russian units.
Ukrainian intelligence also indicates that Russia is actively preparing to integrate new North Korean troops into its military structures. To do this, Moscow allegedly provides them with the necessary ** weapons, ammunition and organizes joint training ** to ensure their effective interaction with Russian units.
Earlier, South Korea transmitted information to its allies that North Korea could send additional troops to Russia as early as July or August 2025, which coincides with the current estimates of the Ukrainian side. Such a large-scale step could become an important factor in the further development of the military conflict, especially if the DPRK begins to take a more active part in hostilities on the side of Russia.
