Photos and videos of dozens of North Korean soldiers killed in fighting with Ukrainian forces in Kursk, Russia, local media Ukraine Prouda reported on the 15th local time.
The Ukrainian military's 414th attack drone regiment, dubbed the "Birds of Mazia," reportedly posted photos and videos of dozens of bodies lying in a row on its Telegram channel.
The channel claimed dozens of bodies seen in photos and videos included a large number of North Korean soldiers in addition to Russian troops.
However, the released photos and videos are not clear in image quality and the body is buried in snow, making it difficult to determine whether it is a North Korean soldier's body only with the photos and videos.
Earlier, Ukrainian President Zelensky said in a regular speech on the 14th that "Russia has begun mobilizing a significant number of North Korean troops to drive Ukrainian troops out of the Kursk region."
"Russia is integrating North Korean troops into its units and putting them into operations in Kursk, and for now, North Korean troops are only deployed in operations in Kursk," he said.
