North Korea's Troops in Ukraine: What We Know

This: troops from North Korea could be joining Russia's war in Ukraine. That's what South Korea's intelligence agency says. They claim that North Korea has sent around 1, 500 special forces to Russia. This is big news because it would make North Korea the third country involved in the war. These troops are supposedly staying at military bases in Russia, like Vladivostok and Ussuriysk. They might join the fight after some training. But why would North Korea do this? Well, they've been helping Russia with weapons and supplies. In return, Russia might give North Korea some high-tech military stuff. This could make things tougher for South Korea and the U. S.Some experts aren't sure how much help these North Korean troops would be. They've got old equipment and not much battle experience. But it could be a chance for North Korea to test their soldiers and learn about modern warfare. South Korea's president had an emergency meeting about this. They think it's a serious security threat. Tensions between North and South Korea have been high lately, with North Korea testing lots of missiles. Ukraine's president warned that if a third country joins the war, it could turn into a world war. That's a scary thought.
