Adapted to the war in Ukraine: GUR told how the DPRK soldiers mastered drones and Reb

To spread: North Korean soldiers who fought in the Russian army in the Kursk direction have already improved their skills and have taken over the use of drones and radio electronic struggle. The representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Andriy Chernyak told this in an interview with the Japanese TV channel NHK.

He argues that at the beginning of their involvement in the fighting, the military from the DPRK made an unsuccessful attempt at a large -scale offensive, but were defeated by Ukrainian artillery and drone. This situation has forced them to change the approach - now they operate in small groups of several fighters. "We see that the North Korean troops have adapted to the new conditions.

They have mastered the techniques used by Russia, including the management of unmanned systems and the management of the ER. ," Chernyak stressed. Now the losses of North Korea are about 5 thousand people - such estimates of Ukrainian intelligence. Another 6,000 DPRK soldiers continue to fight on the Russian side in the Kursk direction. Chernyak also noted that despite the language barrier, the North Korean storms perform tasks without direct contact with the Russian commanders.

They receive instructions, reach the places and are fixed on the ground, acting autonomously from the Russian military. The GUR representative said that Russia is preparing new offensive actions in the northeast of the country - in the direction of Sumy and Kharkiv, where it will be able to more actively attract North Korean units. Chernyak said that North Korea became the main supplier of artillery shells for Russia - every second was used by the occupants made in the DPRK.

In addition, Pyongyang supplies Moscow and rockets. Previously, they were extremely inaccurate, now the Koreans have significantly improved the specifications of their weapons - now it is more accurate. Andriy Chernyak warned that the DPRK can transfer combat experience from Ukraine, where he will teach new footage of modern tactics of war. This automatically creates a threat not only for Ukraine but also for the entire Asian-Pacific region.

It should be reminded that Pyongyang has turned into one of Moscow's key allies in the issue of providing ammunition for war against Ukraine. In a year and a half, North Korea has put Russia about 15,800 cargo containers with projectiles and military equipment.
