Ukrainian forces have captured two “wounded” North Korean soldiers who were operating in the Kursk region of Russia.
The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the two soldiers have been transferred to Kyiv who are now “prisoners of war.”
Zelensky said, “Our soldiers have captured North Korean military personnel in the Kursk region. Two soldiers, though wounded, survived and were transported to Kyiv, where they are now communicating with the Security Service of Ukraine.”
Zelensky added that normally Russian or North Korean soldiers “execute” the Pyongyang wounded to erase any evidence that they are fighting against Ukrainian forces for Vladimir Putin.
The soldiers of Tactical Group No. 84 of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine including their paratroopers captured the two North Korean soldiers and Zelensky said that it was not an easy task.
He said, “As with all prisoners of war, these two North Korean soldiers are receiving the necessary medical assistance,” adding that journalists will be granted access to these prisoners of war.
“The world needs to know the truth about what is happening.”
“The prisoners do not speak Ukrainian, English or Russian, so communication with them takes place through Korean translators in cooperation with South Korean intelligence,” a statement said.
