NORTH KOREA CLAIMS MISSILE STRIKES ON UKRAINE, REAFFIRMS SUPPORT FOR RUSSIA

North Korea has reportedly claimed that its missiles struck targets inside Ukraine while publicly reaffirming its support for Russia, marking what could be a significant escalation in Pyongyang’s increasingly open involvement in the conflict.

According to the reports, North Korean authorities also vowed to stand firmly alongside Moscow against what they described as the “Nazi regime,” using rhetoric closely aligned with Russia’s justification for its war in Ukraine.

If confirmed, the reported acknowledgment would represent a major development, potentially signaling that military cooperation between North Korea and Russia is becoming more direct and public. Pyongyang and Moscow have already been accused by Ukraine, the United States and its allies of expanding cooperation involving weapons, ammunition and military personnel.
