[Regnum] Footage has emerged of joint combat operations by the Russian Armed Forces and North Korean special forces in the Sudzhansky District of the Kursk Region. The corresponding video was published on April 28 by the Russian Defense Ministry.



The footage shows fighters from both countries bringing flags to a church building liberated from Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) forces, hugging, and laying flowers at a memorial.

Earlier that day, the agency published footage of North Korean soldiers being trained by Russian instructors. The footage shows the Korean soldiers learning to fight in various situations, firing various weapons, throwing grenades, and marching. They were wearing St. George ribbons on their helmets.

Russian President Vladimir Putin also said that the Russian people will never forget the feat of the Korean special forces and the fighters who gave their lives for Russia. The head of the DPRK Kim Jong-un also noted that his soldiers fought "for justice and the honor of the Motherland."
