Ukraine captures two North Korean soldiers in Kursk, Russia

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on Saturday that Ukrainian forces had captured two North Korean soldiers, who were fighting alongside Russian forces in the Russian border region of Kursk.
Zelensky made these statements, days after Ukraine began launching new attacks in Kursk, to retain the lands it occupied, in a lightning raid, last August, which resulted in the first occupation of Russian land since World War II.

Moscow’s counterattack exhausted and demoralized Ukrainian forces, killing and wounding thousands and recapturing more than 40% of the area of ​​the Kursk region, 984 square kilometers (380 square miles), that Ukraine had seized.
Zelensky said in a post on the Telegram application, “Our soldiers captured two North Korean soldiers in Kursk. They survived despite their injuries and were transferred to Kiev and are communicating with the Ukrainian security services.”
