Uncovering Russia’s Use of North Korean Missiles in Ukraine
Recent evidence suggests that Russia has employed North Korean ballistic missiles to strike Ukraine, violating international arms embargoes. The U.S. Ministry of Defense’s Intelligence Service identified similarities between missile debris in Kharkiv and North Korean state media images, confirming the use of North Korean weaponry.
This dangerous alliance between Russia and North Korea raises concerns about escalating tensions in the region. With Russia facing military shortages and restricted production capabilities due to sanctions, North Korea has become a key supplier of weapons, including ballistic missiles and artillery shells.
According to Politico, the Biden administration quietly lifted restrictions for Ukraine to use American weapons against Russian forces, specifically near Kharkiv. This development highlights the complexities of the ongoing conflict and the international implications of Russia’s military collaborations.
