  1. >A long report by Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi – the frontline and especially the Pokrovsk direction. The Kursk operation and our vision of further actions on the foothold.

    >I held a meeting of the Staff. Several issues. Among the most important was the report of the intelligence services – the Foreign Intelligence Service and the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine – on the intentions of the Russians for the fall and winter. Everything was quite detailed. The actual involvement of North Korea in the war. Also, Russia’s relations with some other countries, that, unfortunately, are investing in prolonging the war. Also, the direction of foreign policy: our relations with partners and possible steps that can help us defend ourselves and achieve results despite everything. I thank our intelligence, all the specialists involved for the full picture. In return, I have given specific tasks to the Defense Forces, the Security Forces, the Government and our diplomats. 

    >Whoever helps Russia, we will respond as toughly as necessary to defend Ukraine. There will be respective work with our partners to ensure that Russia’s intentions do not work. And it is possible. This is exactly what will happen.

    >I thank everyone who stands with Ukraine!

    >Glory to Ukraine!

    honestly not surprising. Russia has lost over 670 000 combatants. With Ukraine’s active personnel estimated to be 1.2 million soldiers strong ([source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armed_Forces_of_Ukraine)) Russia will have it real tough in the winter, and with western support Ukraine will have access to good winter gear like warm jackets and pants- Russia however not so much.

    If other international militaries are getting involved, why not let the Poles/Baltic countries get what they want, which is to send in their own guys and equipment to tear up the Russkies?

    I’ve never been more disappointed with our administration. Zelensky continues to provide every ounce of evidence under the sun to just about anyone who’s willing to listen and we continue to hold him back. Ukraine is single handedly fighting two different countries (maybe more through the recruitment of migrants Russia continues to enlists) and we can’t even allow them to fire missiles deep inside Russia. If anything, Ukraine has proven itself enough times to lose count. Let’s removed this invisible leash we have on them so they can win this war for good.

    There… I can breathe now.

  5. can you imagine some operations that might happen in north korea by SF. they are in fact entering the fuck around phase.

    Send some Ukrainians to Eastern Russia. Blow up an NK shipment, bridge, etc… go home.

  7. People are talking about ammo and troops but if NK supplies Russia with thousands of artillery pieces and tanks it could extend this war by years.

    I’d guess that Russia is going to supply Korea with ICBM technology to make sure he can hit anywhere in the US, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he goads NK into sending a few to the US.

  9. What would be *really* spicy would be an attack by Ukraine on N. Korea proper, but there’s no way in hell the US is signing off on that.

  10. Now what? Is there any sanction left we can put on North Korea? I’m guessing we’ll just do like we don’t know anything about this.

  11. We’ve anticipated this before when Russia tries to bring NK troops into Ukraine under their agreement. Now it happened.

    The new Axis is being established; Russia, North Korea, Iran and China will be the antagonistic world powers in WWIII

  13. When your 3 days special military operation is going so well you have to receive troops support from North Korea

    This comment got heavily downvoted on r/UkraineRussiaReport, let’s see how it will do here

    Russia is currently short on; workers, troops and military equipment. North korea can assist on all these fronts and could keep Russia in the fight for significantly longer than it would otherwise. The west will need to significantly increase its aid to Ukraine if it wants them to pull through.

  15. ToughTechnical8868 on

    The question is: what will South Korea do? Will they increase ammo and maybe even weapons deliveries to Ukraine? It is their chance to weaken the NK military and also I don’t believe they are very interested in a scenario where Russia and NK support each other’s military (technology).

  16. AnimatedCarbonRod on

    Now it’s time to publish the “I want to live” program in Korean. My guess is soon you will have NK Defectors.

  17. Lets be real, Ukraine will not be able to hurt North Korea. It’s too far away. Frankly this is great deal for North Korea if they can accelerate their missile program at cost of few rusty artillery shells and few sickly and malnourished North Korean soldiers. This is getting way out of hand. Soon whole world will be plunged into war by yet another sick mind drunk by power. They should have stopped him in 2014 when it was beginning, millions would have bigger chance to be still alive today. Patton was right.

    what’s next now? south supports ukraine? apparently north korea is prepping to blow up roads near the border with the south

  19. North Korea by having soldiers in country, is doing a lot more direct fighting than any of Ukraine’s allies.

  20. What’s next though? Going to sanction a hermit kingdom dictatorship that already relies on UN ration drops??

    FFS I cannot understand this…russia is allowed to include other countries in its war against Ukraine. It gets weapons–long range, arms, and now North Koreans involved.—the world stands idly by.

    The west STILL refuses to allow long range weapons to be used in russia–does this make ANY sense?.

    They are fighting OUR fight–freedom and the ability to choose, to live free.

    GIVE THEM THE ABILITY TO WIN—because they CAN win.

    This post’s title is misleading. The only mention of NK by Zelensky is him saying there are reports of “the actual involvement of North Korea in the war.” That is vague and should not be immediately interpreted as NK entering the war in a new capacity.

    Ukrainians are fighting against Russia, North Korea, Iran, China, and who knows who else. We need to help Ukraine way more than we do now.
