South Korea believes that the DPRK has encountered the Ukrainian defense forces only within minor episodes. Seoul is convinced that it is too early to talk about the full entry of the North Korean forces. Seoul is convinced that the North Korean troops have not yet entered into full fighting with the Ukrainian forces that carry out their operation in the Kursk region.

About it reports Yonhap with reference to an unnamed local high -ranking official "A large number of North Korean troops deployed in Russia, has already moved to the western front lines, but full fighting has not yet begun," - said the interlocutor. According to him, Seoul now has the confidence that there have been "minor incidents of intelligence or preparatory nature.

" The interlocutor also stated that South Korea was thinking about sending a group of observers to Ukraine who should evaluate the potential joint operations of military DPRK and the Russian Federation.

"If North Korea and Russia start joint combat operations, it will be extremely important to track their tactics, weapons and any losses by North Korea, as this information may be crucial for South Korea's safety and cooperation with Ukraine," he said Adding that Kiev can send to Seoula its special representative, who will be discussed about the situation at the front and joint response.
