Summary
North Korea has deployed 10,000-12,000 troops to aid Russia in Ukraine’s Kursk region, marking a significant escalation in its alliance with Moscow.
Initially inexperienced, the North Korean forces have adapted to modern combat, gaining battlefield skills.
Ukrainian intelligence confirms their presence through intercepted communications and battlefield observations.
These developments pose a global threat as North Korea acquires modern military experience, enhancing its capabilities.
They’re dying at a much faster rate than Russians though, so it might be difficult to accumulate experience.
Depends if it’s just troops or there are also commanders in the mix learning what gets their troops killed. Of course Ukraine is also targeting commanders and there have been confirmed NK generals killed, so it’s not guaranteed they survive.
For the people who are still aliiiive 🎶
1 in 200 learns about modern warfare. The other 199 are carried back in bags.
I seriously doubt they’re carried further than that ditch right over there, if they’re lucky…
Where the wild pigs will get them.
Hopefully not don’t want the pigs to get any nasty parasites. At least burn the trenches.
I am all for demonizing the nk gov, but not so much the general population.
it’s crazy watching north korea attempting to do for russia in ukraine what america attempted to do for france in vietnam.
just utterly myopic.
Not saying Ukraine isn’t a quagmire for Russia, but the US’s role in Vietnam bears little similarity to what NK is trying to accomplish in Ukraine. The US wasn’t licking France’s boot as a geopolitical move. This is 100% Kim Jung Un trying to get into Putin’s good graces.
And getting a ton of money, oil, and ICBM technology in return.
preface: i acknowledge that you are correct. However, I still want to meme. So,
cool motive
still sending their troops into a nation that is fighting for independence from a complete whole-ass other nation’s foreign occupation
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
lol, I can dig it man.
‘dig’ is, after all, literally in your name :3
Ha! Touché. You are one with the memes.
Digredior was a shit attempt at me trying to come up with the Latin word for destruction for a new WoW character I was making some around 15 years ago. I don’t know what stupid fucking translator I used, hit it essentially means, “I digress”. However, I’ve always liked how it sounded, so I’ve used it here and there for various alternate accounts on various platforms…
