Summary

Ukraine is using psychological warfare to target North Korean troops fighting for Russia, urging them to surrender through the “I Want to Live” campaign.

This initiative, which previously encouraged Russian soldiers to defect, now includes Korean-language leaflets and videos instructing North Korean troops on how to safely surrender.

Up to 12,000 North Korean soldiers have reportedly been deployed to Russia’s Kursk region, with some killed in the conflict.

In return for their support, Russia is supplying fighter jets to North Korea, heightening geopolitical tensions.

    They just actually got MiG29s and SU-27s. It’s gonna be awhile before they are trained to fly them properly

    And from what we’ve seen on the ground (or air) in Ukraine they are NOT going to be 5th gen retrofitted jets

      Wikipedia claimed the 29s from sources that are years old. IDK though, not like it really matters, NK is basically a Chinese buffer state, any war one is involved in brings the other in.

      Those old MiG-21 derivatives will make for nice NCD memes though.

      You can’t get a lock on an American jet because of their stealth features.

      I can’t because I don’t even have a look-down/shoot-down radar.

      We are not the same.
