Ukraine's military intelligence has reported that North Korean troops are suffering significant casualties and logistical challenges in the ongoing fighting in Russia's Kursk region. Ukrainian strikes near Novoivanovka have resulted in heavy losses for North Korean units, leading to supply issues and shortages of drinking water for the troops.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy disclosed that approximately 3,000 North Korean troops have been killed or wounded in the conflict, marking the first official estimate of North Korean casualties since their deployment to support Russia in the nearly three-year war.
