Tropas rusas y norcoreanas se concentran para contraofensiva en Kursk
November 11, 2024 - Rusia prepara para lanzar una ofensiva en la región de Kursk con 50.000 soldados, incluidos norcoreanos, en un esfuerzo por reclamar territorio capturado por Ucrania.
A new U.S. assessment concludes that Russia has massed the force without having to pull soldiers out of Ukraine’s east – its main battlefield priority – allowing Moscow to press on multiple fronts simultaneously.
Russian troops have been clawing back some of the territory that Ukraine captured in Kursk this year. They have been attacking Ukrainian positions with missile strikes and artillery fire, but they have not yet begun a major assault there, U.S. officials said.
Ukrainian officials say they expect such an attack involving the North Korean troops in the coming days, according to the New York Times.
