Sacred training: what North Korea tells the families of soldiers who died in Kursk.


Families of the deceased North Korean soldiers in Kursk are being forced to sign non-disclosure documents and are prohibited from communicating with each other. This was reported by the intelligence community InformNapalm, citing the publication 'Free Asia' (RFA).
The deaths of North Korean soldiers during their participation in the war against Ukraine are considered by the North Korean authorities as 'sacred training'.
The North Korean regime awards the families of deceased soldiers with a 'warrior's certificate' for their participation in the war or preparation for it. They receive benefits from the state. However, some families were unaware that their relatives had died after being sent to Russia. Authorities had them sign a document prohibiting them from talking about this. More than ten such certificates have been issued this month. This may indicate that there could be even more deceased soldiers.
Kim Jong-un's authorities monitor the sentiments of families who have received death certificates for their relatives and try to prevent the disclosure of this information. Citizens are outraged by the use of young soldiers in the war to earn foreign currency.
We remind you that Russia suffered losses during the fighting in Kursk, including North Korean soldiers and Russian paratroopers.
Additionally, the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck the command post of the occupying Russian army in the Kursk region.
