The agency's experts added that it is difficult to determine what the rocket was struck, it is difficult-KN-23 or KN-24, but apparently Kiev was the purpose of this ballistics. Defense Express experts confirm that the wreckage of this rocket was found by the residents of the capital. The photo sent to the editorial staff shows a rather large fragment, similar to fuselage. "It has quite uncharacteristic for Russian rockets of marking that has been tried to erase.

Applying large serial numbers to rockets is characteristic only of the DPRK," experts emphasize. And they add that by applying such long serial numbers, Pyongyang is more likely to create the illusion of a large number of such rockets in their arsenal. At the same time, as military experts emphasize, Russia does not apply serial numbers to rockets at all.

After the missiles, as explained by Defense Express experts, the debris was scattered in a large enough area, so their identification is somewhat complicated. The same situation was observed in Kharkiv after the impact of the North Korean rocket. At that time, Ukrainian experts had virtually no information, as missiles from the DPRK did not reach the goals at that time, that is, remained within the Russian Federation and fell into the sea.

It was then that the Prosecutor General of Ukraine became officially known that on January 2, 2024, a ballistic missile made by North Korea was used to strike on Kharkov during a massive shelling on January 2, 2024. It should be reminded that on January 24, a 4-year-old child was injured during the evening shelling of Kharkiv. The Russian rocket hit the house in the city center, which is almost 130 years old.
