Russian Telegram channels indicated that the number of injured may reach 26.
The attack caused damage to a number of other buildings, while video clips spread on social media showing fires breaking out.
Rylsk, inhabited by about 15,000 people, is located about 30 kilometers from the border, and serves as a deployment area for Russian forces aiming to repel Ukrainian incursions from the Kursk region.

North Korean forces in Kursk

A few days ago, the Ukrainian Internal Intelligence Service indicated that North Korean forces fighting alongside the Russian army to reclaim the Kursk region occupied by Ukraine are suffering heavy losses.
He stated that, based on wiretapped phone conversations, more than 200 injured North Koreans were transferred to a hospital near Moscow within a few days.
There are also complaints that North Korean soldiers receive preferential treatment at the hospital.

Kursk border region war

Ukrainian military intelligence also reported earlier that Moscow intends to reinforce its forces in the Russian border region of Kursk with more North Korean soldiers.
Intelligence officials noted that in addition to Russian casualties, “at least 30” North Korean soldiers have been killed or wounded so far.
It was reported at the time that due to the losses, the offensive forces would be reinforced with new elements, mainly from the North Korean army.

Pyongyang denounced criticism by the United States and its allies of North Korean support for Russia in its war on Ukraine, including the deployment of forces.

Criticism of Pyongyang

It refused to describe this support as a “reckless provocation,” while a Foreign Ministry spokesman said in a statement reported by the official North Korean News Agency that the announcement issued by 10 countries and the European Union entails a distortion of the normal cooperation ties between Pyongyang and Moscow.

Jonah Leaf, head of the Conflict Armament Research Organization, said that North Korea proved this year that it is capable of producing ballistic missiles and supplying them to Russia for use against Ukraine within months.
He stated that he informed the UN Security Council that researchers on the ground examined the remains of 4 North Korean missiles that were found in Ukraine in July and August.
