Summary

About 8,000 North Korean troops are in Russia’s Kursk region, ready to join the war with weaponry provided by Moscow, including AK-12 rifles, RPG-7s, and night vision equipment. These troops have been trained by Russian forces in artillery and infantry tactics.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called for Western allies to allow long-range strikes, proposing Ukraine could preemptively target the North Korean forces if equipped with necessary weaponry.

    It’s seems so tone-deaf to call other people “orcs”. But I guess there’s a reason why the US is about to turn to facism.

      Probably because they are invading another country? Maybe they should be using their heads and thinking a little bit critically…

      Don’t get me wrong, I also don’t have much like for US foreign policy of “bringing freedom” anyone with oil or their fanatical support of Israel.

      But I do agree with your general sentiment that US also sucks donkeys arse. You can hate both sides but I know on which side of the border, I would rather be right now.

        So y’all don’t think you are sounding like the “orcs” you think you’re talking about?
