Zelensky: North Korean Soldiers Reveal Brutal Doctrine, Executed Surrendering Soldiers in Ukraine Captivity
Jan 20, 2025, 09:16 AM
Recent revelations from North Korean soldiers captured by Ukraine have shed light on the country's military doctrine, which reportedly includes a standing order for troops to take their own lives rather than face capture. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed ongoing communication between these soldiers and the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) investigators. The captured soldiers provided intelligence indicating their relocation to Russian territory for training and complete information isolation. Additionally, reports indicate that North Korean troops executed surrendering Ukrainian soldiers, justifying these actions by citing the deaths of their comrades. New footage of the interrogations has also been shared by Zelensky, highlighting the brutal realities faced by soldiers on both sides of the conflict.
