  • The US Department of State said that Russia's success on the battlefield using the North Korean military will depend on the level of their integration into the Russian army.
  • Last week, two US officials confirmed that North Korean troops were involved in combat operations in Russia's Kursk Oblast for the first time.
  • The New York Times reported that 50,000 Russian and North Korean soldiers are preparing to launch a large-scale counteroffensive in Russia’s Kursk Oblast.
