Part 4/9:
Both Russia and North Korea have avoided formally acknowledging the deployment of North Korean troops, prompting speculation about the Kremlin's attempts to hide its mounting casualties. Reports have emerged detailing how North Korean soldiers were issued fraudulent military identification, indicating further efforts to obfuscate their presence on the battlefield.
The Ukrainian government has sought to leverage the situation by using captured North Korean soldiers as key negotiating points in potential prisoner exchanges with Russia. This could expose the Kim regime's actions and raise questions about the treatment of its troops who were sent into a foreign conflict.
