Russian Troops Furious Over North Korean ‘Allies’—Leaked Chats Expose Explosive Tensions

Ukrainian defense authorities have discovered evidence of discontent and dismissive attitudes towards North Korean troops within the Russian military.

According to recently released information from Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence Agency (UDIA), Russian soldiers stationed in the Kursk Oblast have exchanged derogatory remarks about the North Korean troops.

CNN and The Kyiv Independent, among other media outlets, reported on the intercepted conversations obtained by Ukrainian intelligence.

Russian soldiers repeatedly expressed frustration with North Korean troops, referring to them as “d– sons of a b–” in the conversations.

The soldiers were particularly frustrated by the assignment of one interpreter and three high-ranking Russian officers for every thirty North Korean troops.

One soldier voiced his frustration, “I don’t understand why we need three officers for every 30 men.”

Another soldier expressed confusion about the command structure, “Didn’t they say seventy-seven battalion commanders are coming tomorrow? Even commanders and deputy commanders.”

The Russian military refers to the North Korean troops by the code name “K Battalion.” The code name appears to be part of efforts to maintain secrecy regarding the presence of North Korean forces.

The UDIA reported that these conversations were intercepted on the night of October 3 through Russia’s encrypted communication channels.

The deployment of North Korean troops to Russia has already sparked significant international controversy.

North Korea’s military support is viewed as a crucial factor in prolonging Russia’s war in Ukraine, leading to increasing international criticism.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy indicated that North Korean troops might be fully engaged in combat between Sunday and Monday, suggesting an imminent clash with Ukrainian forces.
