News Russia is shipping North Korean artillery to Ukraine via Crimea, photo suggestsExpert says Koksan self-propelled guns and 240mm MLRS will likely enter combat in southern Ukraine
Russia has shipped North Korean self-propelled guns and multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) to occupied Crimea, a new photo suggests, likely in preparation to deploy them in southern Ukraine. The latest evidence of DPRK weapons transfers to Russia came as the South Korean military assessed on Thursday that Pyongyang has dispatched more troops and artillery to aid Moscow’s military campaign, even as the U.S. pushes for an end to the war. The photo of several M-1989 Koksan self-propelled artillery being transported through northern Crimea appeared on the Telegram channel Crimean Wind on Wednesday and soon spread to Russian and Ukrainian © Korea Risk Group.
