Russia-Ukraine: North Korean troops suffered heavy losses in Kursk, Zelenskyy says

North Korean troops deployed in Russia's Kursk region are suffering heavy losses and being left unprotected by the Russian forces they are fighting alongside, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Friday. Zelenskyy, in his nightly video address, said Russian troops were sending the North Koreans into battle with minimal protection and that North Koreans were taking extreme measures to avoid being taken prisoner. Ukrainian and Western intelligence reports say there are about 12,000 North Korean troops in Kursk, a Russian region on the border where Ukrainian forces are holding chunks of territory after staging an incursion in August. Earlier this week, Zelenskyy said more than 3,000 North Koreans had been killed or wounded.
