Ukrainian military sources have reported that North Korean soldiers have begun participating in assaults in the Kursk region, using tactics resembling a 'zerg rush' with mass infantry assaults across open terrain. Preliminary data indicates that Russia is integrating significant numbers of North Korean troops into consolidated units for operations in this area. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the involvement, stating, "If this is not an escalation, then what is the escalation that many have been talking about?" Zelensky noted that North Korean soldiers are being used in assaults and may soon participate on other fronts. Footage has allegedly surfaced showing disorganized assaults by North Korean forces, with Ukrainian troops inflicting heavy losses. This marks the first large-scale deployment of North Korean troops in over 70 years and represents a significant escalation in the conflict.
