North Korean military personnel are undergoing training at five training grounds of the Eastern Military District of the Armed Forces of Russia.

The "guests" from North Korea are being trained by Russian military instructors from the Airborne Forces and special operations units, reported Ukraine's permanent representative to the UN, Serhiy Kyslytsya, during a UN Security Council meeting titled "Support for Peace and Security in Ukraine."

He also noted that the contingent includes at least 500 North Korean army officers, among them three generals from the General Staff.

Kyslytsya named these generals:

  • Colonel General Kim Yong Bok, Deputy Chief of the General Staff for Special Operations;

  • Colonel General Lee Chang Ho, Deputy Chief of the General Staff – Head of the Intelligence Directorate;

  • Major General Shin Hem Chol, Head of the Main Operational Directorate.


According to Serhiy Kyslytsya, the North Korean military plans to form at least five units, each comprising 2,000 to 3,000 personnel.

Soldiers from North Korea are expected to wear Russian uniforms, use Russian weapons, and will also be issued Russian documents.
