Pyongyang officially confirmed the deployment on Monday.&quot;Operations to liberate the Kursk region to repel the adventurous invasion of the Russian Federation by the Ukrainian authorities have been successfully completed,&quot; the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported, citing an official statement from the country&#39;s Central Military Commission.The North Korean state news agency KCNA reported that, in addition to personnel, the government of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un sent Russia short-range ballistic missiles, self-propelled howitzers, multi-barrel rocket launchers, thousands of containers with ammunition, and that North Korea&#39;s military support to Russia is expected to grow in line with the development of the situation.Russian forces have used North Korean missiles in attacks on Ukrainian targets, and as previously reported by CNN, Pyongyang is testing drones of a new generation, in the development of which Russian components were used.In October last year, the Russian State Duma ratified the comprehensive strategic partnership agreement with North Korea, which was signed by the presidents of the two countries, Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un. On that occasion, the North Korean leader said that this agreement gave full support to the war that Russia is waging in Ukraine.Ukraine began its incursion into the Kursk region last August, deploying some of its best units, equipped with Western-supplied weapons, and initially gained ground and captured a number of settlements before Russian forces halted their advance.Kyiv and its Western backers have long claimed that North Korean troops were involved in the conflict. Before Saturday, Pyongyang and Moscow had neither confirmed nor denied the rumours, while the Russian president previously said it was up to the two nations to determine how they would meet their obligations under the partnership pact.
