South Korea has raised concerns that North Korean soldiers are likely fighting alongside Russian forces in Ukraine, with reports suggesting some have already been killed. This comes amid accusations from the US and its allies that North Korea has been supplying weapons and munitions to Russia. The involvement of North Korean troops marks a significant escalation in the international dimensions of the Ukraine conflict, with North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un also issuing renewed threats of nuclear action against South Korea and the US. The situation underscores the deepening ties between Russia and North Korea as the war drags on.
