North Korean soldiers are fighting differently from the Russians – pointed out Major Oleg Series, Ukrainian commander of the 225th Independence Attack Regiment. In an interview with ABC News Station, the officer spoke about his branch’s conflict with Koreans from the north of the Kruski region.

The military has revealed details of the fight against the Koreans. They are different from the Russians
According to Major Oleg Sziriev, in the months of the battle in the Kursk region, North Korean units became Russian “elite” assault forces and tried to deny Ukrainian forces from his territory. The military emphasized that North Korea is less TI-ill than Russians.
-They (Koreans from the North) will not give up. I don’t remember a single case when we were able to take them prisoners. We have already taken several injured people, but I think they died because of their wounds, Sziriew said.
The officer’s experience coincides with how the combative activities of North Korean soldiers in the Kursk region are generally perceived – the Union Agency points out. The major emphasized that Kim’s army had quickly become “the main force of the Russian attack.”
– They were always used in assaults, and the Russians were used to consolidate the positions occupied by the Koreans. They are best prepared from a physical training perspective. They are good shooters. They are not afraid to attack drones – they shoot drones with weapons. They don’t abandon the injured. They always try to evacuate them – sziriew said.
The military added that unlike the Russians, Koreans from the north are more loyal and that heroic deaths on the battlefield are something they are proud of. He says Russian soldiers are forced to fight.
War in Ukraine. Officers will actively evaluate Kiev’s attacks in Kursk region
The commander also evaluated Kursk’s operation as a successful operation despite the retreat of the Kiev forces. In April, the Russians managed to drive most of the Ukrainian troops out of the area. They were forced to quickly withdraw from Suda city, centering on attacks by Russian and North Korean forces.
-They (Russians and Koreans from the North) have lost many people. Both of these are recovered and irreversible losses. They have lost a lot of equipment, a large part of their infrastructure is damaged. So they need to rebuild it. This is also expensive, and will weaken Russia – the military explained.
Sziriew pointed out that he initially did not believe in the success of the attack on Kursk. But he’s happy that it’s started. – I was skeptical at first. We are proud to have moved the battle to Russian lands first – about his regiment, consisting of five battalions, said about a battalion of about 55,000 men. soldier.
On Monday, Ukrainian President Ukwodymirzelansky said Ukrainian forces were still operating combat operations in the Kursk region, confirming similar actions have been taking place recently in the Belgorod region of the Russian Federation’s territory.
