The National Intelligence Service of South Korea announced the dispatch of 12 thousand North Korean troops to Russia to support it in the war with Ukraine. This was reported by the Renhap agency.
According to reports, Pyongyang has already made such a decision, and the redeployment of troops has already begun. We are talking about four military brigades, including special forces units.
If confirmed, this could be the first large-scale deployment of North Korean troops outside the Korean peninsula. North Korean special forces fought in the Angolan civil war in the 1970s and 1980s.
South Korean President Yun Seok-yol held an emergency security meeting. He called the deployment a serious security threat to his country and the world community.
