The confirmation comes just a week after Sergei Shoigu, head of Russia’s Security Council, said North Korea would send military builders and sappers to help restore Russia’s Kursk region during his visit to Pyongyang.
“After dispatching 11,000 personnel in October last year, Russia has already announced a second deployment of 4,000 troops, and a further 6,000 construction troops to assist in rebuilding Kursk,“ said Lee.
Evidence for this is that, during previous deployments, Shoigu visited Pyongyang roughly a month in advance, said Lee, along with “recent reports that North Korea has begun selecting personnel for dispatch, as indicators that preparations are already underway.”
“North Korea is believed to have provided Russia with an estimated several million artillery shells, along with missiles and long-range rocket systems, delivered by ship and military aircraft,“ added Lee.
Around 600 North Korean soldiers have been killed and thousands more wounded fighting for Russia, according to Lee, citing the South Korean intelligence service.
North Korean state media said leader Kim Jong Un had confirmed plans for further cooperation but did not provide detail.
