"DPRK soldiers are better than Russian infantry": the Armed Forces told about fighting with military Kim Jong -in

Ukrainian soldiers say that the North Koreans shoot well and show miracles of endurance, but Russians use them as cannon meat. Ukrainian soldiers who fought with the DPRK in the Kursk region told why the Kim Jong's soldiers were better than Russian infantry. They clearly went through preparation and probably truth from the North Korean special forces. The Armed Forces fighters told El País journalists.

The Ukrainian military agrees that the North Koreans, whom they collided, are well -trained soldiers who far superior to ordinary Russian infantry, are probably truly elite troops. Volodymyr, a member of the 8th Regiment of Special Purpose, gave an demonstrative example: according to the Western standards of evacuation of the wounded, four soldiers have to coordinate their actions to take away the fallen comrades from the battlefield.

But the North Koreans send only one soldier to bring out the wounded. "He carries him on his shoulders, and all," Vladimir said. Andriy, the real name of the company commander of the 61st mechanized brigade, says that the DPRK soldiers are prepared military people who were clearly trained for more than six months. He adds that the average age of the North Koreans is much lower than in the Russian army. The oldest soldier of the DPRK, whom they identified, was 25 years old.

"They shoot well, move well, they are good fighters, but they are used as cannon meat," Andrew says. The tactics of DPRK soldiers are always the same: they attack the assault groups of at least 100 soldiers "in the forehead", without retreating or changing the direction, even when artillery beats them. They have almost no armored vehicles or support for Russian artillery. "This is a classic Soviet military tactic: to attack at any cost. But it is suicide.

They are more motivated ideologically, but they are not ready for this war, they do not understand it technologically, and their tactics do not correspond to tactics of modern war , Preskretar of the 95th Brigade, noting that the DPRK soldiers are coming "to the last person. " "It was one day when 700 North Koreans attacked us, just in the forehead, just shouting and shooting, almost without fire support. At least 30%died," he said. And the DPRK soldiers have no equipment.

The Armed Forces fighters told how they found one right of 20 people. And during the battle, they heard the company commander exclaimed his people, while the Russian gave him basic instructions in Russian. The Ukrainian military also point to communication problems between the Russians and the North Koreans as a decisive factor in retreating the latter from the front.

But now the Armed Forces fighters emphasize that the North Koreans are studying and if they receive training from their comrades who already have combat experience, "they can become more dangerous opponents. " It should be reminded that on the basis of the mutual defense agreement, signed in 2024, Kim Cenn In and Vladimir Putin, Pyongyang has placed more than 11,000 soldiers in the Kursk region since October.
