North Korea is reportedly considering deploying up to 100,000 troops to aid Russia in its war against Ukraine. This potential move underscores the deepening alliance between Pyongyang and Moscow. Intelligence from several G20 nations suggests that the deployment is not imminent and would likely involve troop rotations rather than a single large-scale deployment. Analysts believe that such support would occur in batches, reflecting the growing military cooperation between the two nations. Western officials have noted the involvement of 12,000 North Korean troops already in the conflict.
