Russia Deploys North Korean Ballistic Missile in Deadly Strike on SE Ukraine
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy confirmed that Russia utilized a North Korean-supplied ballistic missile in a strike on a village in southeastern Ukraine, killing six people, including three children. This marks the first confirmed use of North Korean munitions in several months, indicating a renewed supply chain between Moscow and Pyongyang. The strike was part of a larger 300-unit projectile wave that local air defenses struggled to fully intercept due to interceptor shortages.
