Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy claims Russian forces are burning the faces of dead North Korean soldiers to hide their involvement in Ukraine.

He says North Koreans are now being deployed in significant numbers, particularly in Russia’s Kursk region, where 200 have reportedly been killed or wounded.

The U.S. confirmed indications of North Korean casualties, while South Korea imposed sanctions on officials and entities involved in North Korea-Russia military cooperation.

        The BBC article doesn’t make the false claim of Russia burning off their faces to keep it a secret.

          It literally does.

          It’s pretty damn foolish of you to deny the contents of an article are in the article twice.

            It could be in there a dozen times and it doesn’t make it true. They’ve lied to us continually and have a history of lying over decades to manufacture public consent for war.
