    sad to think this probably is the best opportunity north-koreans will have to flee from their country

      They’ll probably only send people with families so they can take them in hostage if a soldier flees

        To flee North Korea requires playing a long game, marry someone you hate.

      Ukraine takes prisoners, so immediately surrendering is a pretty good escape plan. Just make sure to avoid the Russian troops dedicated to killing deserters.

    For once, I don’t think those contractors will go straight to war crimes. In Iraq and Afghanistan their main orders were to provide security. Unfortunately that meant that they couldn’t scratch their itchy trigger fingers. This time around, thanks to Russia flooding the lines with meat, they’ll have a target rich environment in which to play with their toys. They’ll be too busy playing John Wick against poorly trained ex-cons and conscripts to accidentally kill any women and children.

    EDIT: removed Too much information.

      At the risk of being too credible, I should point out that contractors don’t necessarily mean PMC and most of the time they’re just maintenance/support types.

    Imagine training for a war like the Korean War, artillery and waves of people shooting at you, then you deploy and see a lone Mavik flying above. Those NK troops have no idea what is going to happen and every single one of them will die confused.

      I wonder if they even know what the fuck a drone is? It’s going to be like flying a drone over an u contacted tribe except instead of spears they’ll have 50 year old AKs

    Is this the first time a North Korean military unit will see actual sustained combat since the Korean War?

    Let’s see how effective the God Emperor’s Divine Training Regimen is.

      Fuck, imagine seeing ppl 30 or so centimeters taller than you. You can’t really communicate with them besides point and grunt. You see what looks like a giant mutant bird/ mosquito buzz towards your group and than pop someone is dead.

        And also that Lukashenko was widely known for preferring a more reasonable policy toward Ukraine, and he was set to inherit the presidency upon Putin’s death, and that Putin was like right about to die because he became the leader of Russia like 68 years ago

        I can’t believe it’s taken me until now to notice the link between the artist’s name and song name in the historical context. Great song btw, karaoke favourite.

      You would also need interpreters fluent in North Korean dialect. They have been so thoroughly isolated for so long that their language is diverging from Korean spoken in the rest of the world.
