There are no details of what happened yet, except for the mention that the general was wounded in the strikes inflicted “recently” by Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region.

Thus, for the first time, Western officials confirmed that a high-ranking North Korean military officer was wounded on Russian territory while participating in hostilities on the side of the Russian Federation.

Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed on November 21 that an attack was made on the command post of Russian troops in the Kursk region – there are dead and wounded. But, according to him, “the command and operational staff were not injured.”

Bloomberg reported on November 20, citing a Western official familiar with the matter, that the Armed Forces of Ukraine used British cruise missiles for the first time against military facilities on the territory of Russia.

According to the publication’s interlocutor, Great Britain approved the use of Storm Shadow missiles in response to Russia’s deployment of North Korean troops in the war against Ukraine. At the same time, the British government did not officially announce such a move.

On November 20, Defense Express suggested that the strike could be aimed at an object in the Kursk region, where the command of the Russian army group in this region was located together with North Korean generals.
