Secret footage shows Kim's soldiers ready to join Putin's military campaign

Phone recordings from late-last week show soldiers in olive-green uniforms at a dim russian barracks (which confirms earlier intel about Kim Jong-unʼs troops arrival). The footage comes as military experts note growing cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang

About 3000 North Korean soldiers are now training in Russia; more than 10000 additional troops might join them soon. US intel sources say its a critical development that could affect world-wide security‚ while Ukrainian officials confirm that first groups are heading to Kursk

The agreement between Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un from this summer shows real results now — Moscow gets extra forces for its costly operations while Pyongyang gains new allies. This partnership raises questions about what North Korea might get in return:

  • Money and resources for its struggling economy
  • Modern combat experience for its huge but outdated army
  • Help with missile and nuclear tech
  • Support for satellite programs

South Korea doesnt like this new friendship. Seoul and Pyongyang still dont have a peace deal since 1950s war‚ so any military tech going to the North makes South nervous. There are talks that Seoul might send intel teams to Ukraine to watch how their neighbors fight

Sending troops is about the biggest symbol of an alliance commitment that one country can make to another

The deal works both ways — if one side gets into war the other promises to help with all theyʼve got. This means US and South Korean military planners must now think about possible Russian help if something happens on Korean peninsula
