Vladimir Putin urged to 'kill North Korean troops' in Ukraine for one chilling reason Vladimir Putin has urged his soldiers to kill North Korean troops fighting on his side for a chilling reason, according to an expert.
An expert has also claimed that both Russian and North Korean soldiers are under orders to kill the wounded soldiers to prevent them being captured.
Anton Shekhovtsov, a visiting professor at Central European University in Vienna, Austria, said: "Capturing POWs has proven challenging as North Koreans and Russians alike are apparently instructed to kill wounded NK soldiers to prevent them from falling into Ukrainian hands.".
North Korean soldiers joined Putin's invasion after the Russian dictator plunged the countries into full-blown war in 2022.
Russian non-regime media also report that the Russian authorities transferred identities of actual Tuvans to drafted NK soldiers.
