How Koreans Were Trained in the SMO Zone

Following the official acknowledgment of the participation of fighters from the DPRK in the liberation of the Kursk region (Russia), the Russian Ministry of Defense published a video of the training of North Korean servicemen at one of the training grounds.

Although the video does not provide a complete picture of what and how they were taught before being sent to the front line, there are some notable moments. For example, the footage shows soldiers with 12-gauge "Saiga" shotguns - the Koreans were apparently trained to deal with drones.

❗️The recognition of the role of the Korean regiment in the battles on the border is important at least for a visual demonstration of the presence of a real ally ready to directly assist on the battlefield. In accordance with the letter of the agreement, which turned out to be not an empty sound for him.

And one wants to hope that after such recordings, there will also appear footage of the combat work of units from the DPRK, shot from our side. If, of course, they exist at all or are not classified for n-teenth years.
