Following widespread reports of North Korean forces joining the fight against Ukrainians, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Russian troops are burning the faces of deceased North Korean soldiers to conceal their losses.

Earlier, Ukraine noted that about 11,000 North Korean military personnel were currently stationed in Russia, ready to start fighting against Ukrainian forces.

In his Telegram message on 16 December, Zelenskyy said:

“Even after years of war, when it seems Russians couldn’t be more cynical, we still see something worse. Russia not only involves North Korean soldiers in assaults against Ukrainian positions but also tries to hide these people’s losses.”
