North Korea’s defence minister vows “resolute counteraction” as regional security fears resurface.

North Korean leader voices full support for Russia’s war in Ukraine as Pyongyang ramps up military exercises.

The Russian foreign minister said Pyongyang “confirmed their firm support for all the objectives of the special military operation” in Ukraine.

Pyongyang is apparently preparing to flood the Ukrainian front with up to 25,000 to 30,000 more troops, signaling a new phase in its military alliance with Russia.

The tourist area can accommodate nearly 20,000 people, according to Pyongyang, which described it as a “world-class cultural resort.”

Seoul sees “no signs” that North Korea is preparing to deploy more troops to Russia.

South Korean intelligence services say the additional deployment could take place as early as July.

Russia has stopped short of confirming that the troops were in the country.

South Korea has condemned the deployment as a violation of international law, predicting destabilised global security.
