North Korean troops are being treated as “expendable” and ordered to take on “hopeless assaults against Ukrainian defenses,” National Security Council official John Kirby said.

Summary

The U.S. claims Russia is deploying North Korean soldiers in Ukraine, using them in “human wave” assaults against Ukrainian defenses.

North Korean soldiers are reportedly being treated as expendable, with some choosing suicide over capture due to fear of reprisal against their families.

Ukraine reports significant casualties among North Korean troops, with some allegedly killed by their own comrades to prevent capture.
