Tropas russas e norte-coreanas concentram-se para contra-ataque em Kursk
November 11, 2024 - Moscovo concentrou dezenas de milhares de soldados, incluindo tropas norte-coreanas, quando se prepara para iniciar uma ofensiva destinada a reconquistar território ocupado pela Ucrânia na região russa de Kursk.
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.
