Details: The SOF reported that the military IDs did not have all the required stamps and photographs. Patronymics were given, in the Russian style, and the stated place of birth was the Republic of Tuva, a constituent entity of the Russian Federation.
The document holders’ signatures, however, were written in Korean.
Quote: "Decrypted data revealed the true names of the dead North Koreans to be Ban Guk Jin, Lee Dae Hyuk and Cho Chul Ho. However, according to their Russian documents, their names were Kim Kang Solat Albertovich, Dongnk Jang Surovich and Belek Aganak Kap-oolovich."
Details: The SOF emphasised that this further confirms that Russia is employing any means possible to obscure its battlefield losses and the involvement of foreign troops.
