News North Korea sent mass shipment of weapons, ammo to Russia: USTransfer to support Ukraine war apparently occurred around time Kim Jong Un visited Far East last month
North Korea recently sent over 1,000 containers of military equipment to Russia to aid Moscow’s war efforts in Ukraine, the U.S. said Friday. “Our information indicates that, in recent weeks, the DPRK has provided Russia with more than 1,000 containers of military equipment and munitions,” the U.S. mission to the U.N announced, citing National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby. The U.S. mission published imagery apparently showing the process of container shipping from the North Korean port of Rajin to Dunay, a seaport near Vladivostok, by the Russian-flagged merchant vessel Angara between Sept. 7 and Oct. 1.
