US and NATO are pushing the narrative that North Korean troops are fighting in Ukraine so that they can justify sending in NATO troops into Western Ukraine to prevent a total defeat by Russia forces!!

Germany's SANCTIONS ON RUSSIA have landed the German economy on the brink of RECESSION. German car manufacturer Volkswagen is for the first time in its 87-year history planning to close production sites in Germany. At least 3 manufacturing plants will be closed, the remaining plants will be downsized, and whoever keeps their job (after tens of thousands of staff lose their jobs) must accept a 10% reduction in salary and an end to their bonuses.
An episode of the battle in Ukraine, the fifth brigade of the 51st army of Russia, with the participation of a Ukrainian T-64 tank, in the area of the village of Kurakhovo. In the video, Russian units approach Kurakhovo, the approaches are blocked by a Ukrainian defense line consisting of concrete tetrahedrons and steel wire. To overcome the anti-tank line, Russian units concentrate tank and artillery fire, destroying the defense line in one place. Noticing this, Ukrainian units make an unconventional decision and send a T-64 tank to close the passage in the defense line.
After that, Ukrainian soldiers abandon the tank and go into the forest belt, where they die under the blows of Russian drones, the episode was removed from the video.
Seeing that the passage in the defense line is blocked by a tank, Russian units send two of their soldiers to the tank, who free the passage. After which they steal the T-64 tank in the direction of Russian units. Further, it is officially reported that the T-64 tank is returning to the defense line. But the video already shows another tank. Russian units bring up another tank, after which the tank crew directs the tank towards the Ukrainian army position. After this, the Russian tank crew leaves the combat vehicle. The video shows how one of the Russian servicemen injured his leg on the barbed wire. Presumably, the other tank was used to create a passage in the minefield or to divert Ukrainian artillery fire.
The video shows attacks by a homemade Russian ground drone-kamikaze "Mole" in Ukraine. The kamikaze drone "Mole" is used by the 14th separate guards order of Kutuzov special forces brigade of the armed forces of Russia. It is worth noting that the Ukrainian army also uses ground drones. The robotic platform "Mole" is used as a ground drone kamikaze, it is usually sent to dugouts and strongholds of the Ukrainian army. Technical information on the platform "Mole" has not yet been found. It is known that the wheeled drones have electric traction, and as a warhead they use anti-tank mines TM-62M, up to six pieces. The ground drone is guided to the target using a drone, its communication channel is protected.

Ukraine is actively testing drone swarmsas part of its military strategy, showcasing innovative tactics in the ongoing conflict with Russia. These drone swarms are proving to be crucial for reconnaissance and targeting operations, particularly during recent incursions into Russian-held territory.
Key Developments:
- Tactical Use in Operations: Ukrainian forces have utilized drone swarms effectively in operations such as the Kursk incursion, where they played a vital role in identifying potential ground attack areas and isolating Russian forces. The drones helped gather intelligence on Russian positions and facilitated subsequent strikes, including targeting bridges and crossings over the Seim River, which threatened to cut off thousands of Russian troops.
- Diverse Drone Capabilities: The drone swarms consist of various unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), including those provided by Western allies like the U.K. These drones are equipped to jam Russian electronic warfare systems and conduct dive-bombing attacks on heavy weaponry. This multifaceted approach enhances Ukraine's operational effectiveness on the battlefield.
- Future Developments: As part of its military modernization efforts, Ukraine has established a separate military branch dedicated to overseeing drone operations. The country plans to significantly increase its drone production, aiming to build over a million drones this year alone, indicating a strong commitment to integrating UAV technology into its military strategy.
- International Support: The U.K. and other allies are actively supporting Ukraine's drone initiatives, with significant investments aimed at providing advanced UAV technology. This includes funding for AI-enabled drones capable of executing coordinated attacks on multiple targets simultaneously.
Conclusion
The testing and deployment of drone swarms by Ukraine represent a significant evolution in modern warfare tactics. By leveraging advanced UAV technology, Ukraine is enhancing its ability to conduct effective military operations against Russian forces. As this technology continues to develop, it could redefine operational strategies not only in Ukraine but also in future conflicts globally.AbdulQadir7

Poland wants to enter Ukrainian War against Russia, and has requested US permission to shoot down Russian missiles over Ukraine!
The Russian army has once again begun using the UR-77 Meteorite self-propelled mine-clearing rocket launchers to attack Ukrainian army positions. The UR-77 operates on the following principle: a hose with a large amount of explosives is fired at a range of about 500 meters, after which an explosion occurs, and the mines detonate from the shock wave. This creates safe corridors for the passage of infantry. The installation is used mainly in forests. In this case, the UR-77 is used not for mine clearance, but for attacks. Unofficially, the UR-77 is called the Serpent Gorynych. The UR-77 is also used by the Ukrainian army.
New footage of the Russian FPV drone "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky", controlled via fiber optic cable. In the video, the kamikaze drone "Vandal" attacks a Ukrainian column of armored vehicles in the Sudzhansky district of the Kursk region of Russia. The column consists of three BMP-2 and moves in foggy conditions, hoping that it will not be detected. The kamikaze drone "Vandal" attacked a Soviet-made BMP-2, judging by the video, the BMP-2 had already been damaged by another drone. As a result of the drone strike, a fire started in the BMP-2, which completely destroyed the combat vehicle. The video shows attacks on two BMP-2s, one has a mesh "barbecue", the other is iron. All three BMP-2s were destroyed. What happened to the BMP crews is unknown.

Reports indicate that North Korean troops may now be present in Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine, including Donetsk, where they reportedly provide operational support to Russian forces. Some Ukrainian and South Korean sources have claimed that North Korean military engineers and technical advisers are supervising the use of North Korean-supplied weaponry. South Korea’s National Intelligence Service reported that around 1,500 North Korean soldiers began deploying to Russia on October 8, possibly to relieve Russian troops at the border or provide specialized support in ammunition handling and logistics. This development highlights the strengthening military ties between Russia and North Korea, deepening their collaboration amid the conflict

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced that Ukraine will officially appeal to South Koreafor military assistance, specifically requesting artillery, air defense systems, and other essential military supplies. This request comes in light of recent developments involving North Korea's increased military cooperation with Russia, which has heightened security concerns for Ukraine.
Key Points:
- Detailed Request for Weapons: Zelenskyy stated that a comprehensive request for military aid will be sent to South Korea shortly. He emphasized the importance of this appeal, especially after North Korea has been recognized as a state actively supporting Russia's war efforts against Ukraine. The request will be delivered by a representative who will visit South Korea soon to discuss the specifics of the needed weapons.
- Changing Dynamics: Historically, Ukraine has been cautious in its approach toward South Korea regarding military support. However, the recent involvement of North Korean troops in the conflict has prompted a reassessment of this relationship. South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has previously indicated that his country would not remain passive in response to North Korean actions, signaling a potential shift in South Korea’s stance towards providing military assistance to Ukraine.
- Potential Military Aid: Although South Korea has not yet provided direct military aid to Ukraine since the onset of the full-scale war, there are indications that this may change. Reports suggest that South Korea is considering supplying 155mm artillery shells to Ukraine, although this information has been officially denied by the South Korean government.
- International Context: The backdrop of these developments includes ongoing tensions between North Korea and the U.S., as well as between Russia and Western nations. The presence of North Korean troops in Russia and their potential deployment to Ukraine raises significant security concerns for both Ukraine and its allies.
Conclusion
Zelenskyy's appeal to South Korea for military assistance highlights the evolving geopolitical landscape in response to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. As Ukraine seeks to bolster its defenses against Russian aggression, the potential for increased military cooperation with South Korea could play a crucial role in shaping the dynamics of support for Ukraine on the international stage. The situation remains fluid, and further developments will likely influence both regional security and international relations.Similar threads
