After receiving training in Russia's far east, some troops have now made their way to the western Russia region where Ukraine has maintained a strong foothold, Kyiv claims.
soldiers have been spotted in Russia's Kursk region, an area of ongoing military operations, Ukraine's military intelligence service announced.
The intelligence service said the roughly 12,000 North Korean soldiers that have been deployed to Russia are receiving training at five military training grounds in the east. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Tuesday that Ukraine had intelligence about Russia "training two military units from North Korea" involving perhaps "two brigades of 6000 people each."
