On Thursday, Ukrainian intelligence has confirmed that North Korea has deployed its troops to the Kursk region of Russia, which marks the Asian country’s open involvment in the conflict.
According to Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate, the North Korean troops are currently stationed at five military training grounds in the eastern part of Russia: Baranovskoye in Ussuriysk, Donguz in Ulan-Ude, Ekaterinoslavsky in Ekaterinoslavka, and the 248th and 249th sites in Knyaze-Volkonskoye and Sergeyivka, respectively. Their training is expected to go on for several weeks.
Intelligence assessments estimate that some 12,000 soldiers, including around 500 officers and three generals, are involved in this deployment. Their training is overseen by Yunus-Bek Yevkurov, Russia’s deputy defense minister.
The North Korean soldiers have been provided basic supplies like winter clothing, hygiene products, and a monthly stock of ’50 meters of toilet paper and 300 grams of soap’ .
It appears the Kremlin has high hopes for North Korea’s involvement in the war against Ukraine.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
