North Korean soldier’s letter reveals theft, vows commitment
A photo of a handwritten letter from a North Korean soldier who joined Russian forces against Ukraine has appeared online. The soldier described an action he took while on the front lines.
In late October and early November, information surfaced about North Korean soldiers being present on the front lines in Ukraine. This signifies that Kim Jong-Un's regime directly supports Vladimir Putin's aggression. It is estimated that approximately 10,000 Korean soldiers are involved in the military actions.
Kim's soldiers were reportedly sent to assist the Russians in expelling Ukrainians from the Kursk region. However, experts noted that the Koreans lack advanced combat skills and experience. Given Ukraine's challenging situation and wave of desertions, even such reinforcement should be regarded as significant.
Revealed the letter of a North Korean soldier: writes about theft
Occasionally, new reports about North Korean soldiers emerge. A letter from one of them has been found online. The soldier wrote openly about what weighs on his conscience.
The Korean recounted an experience, stating that Supreme Commander Kim instructed them to uphold the honor of their homeland by showcasing the strength and bravery of special forces. They admitted that, while working in the barracks and believing they were unobserved, they took items belonging to a Russian and concealed them in their pocket.
The soldier acknowledged that he violated standards by stealing property from another country. He added that such behaviour could have serious consequences for his comrades.
I will no longer trade in other people's things. I will heroically advance in the front and destroy the enemy - added the letter's author.
Finally, we learn about the author of the letter. Gyeong Hong Jong was killed in the Kursk region.
