South Korea has claimed that 100 North Korean soldiers were killed in the war against Ukraine. A South Korean parliamentarian has claimed that at least 100 North Korean soldiers were killed while fighting the war against Ukraine on behalf of Russia.
Lee Sung Kwon, South Korea's parliamentarian, told reporters that the National Investigation Agency informed the parliament about this, according to the BBC news. MP Kwon also claimed that more than 1,000 North Korean soldiers were injured during the war. According to him, senior officers of the North Korean army were also killed.
According to a recently published report, it was claimed that more than 10,000 North Korean soldiers participated in the war against Ukraine by Russia. However, it has not been independently confirmed.
Citizens of various countries are participating on behalf of the Russian army in the fight against Ukraine. Some time ago, India said that 2 of its citizens who participated in the Russian army were killed. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs has completely banned the recruitment of Indian citizens into the Russian army.
A large number of Nepali citizens have been recruited in the Russian army. The government does not have the exact data of Nepalis who joined the Russian army and fought in the war against Ukraine. According to the Nepalese who went there, it is estimated that around 1500 have joined the army. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already confirmed that 46 Nepalis died out of them. Like Lokendra, the families of 118 people who have no contact have applied to the consular department for tracing.
After the initiative of the Nepalese government, Russia has stopped recruiting Nepalis, according to the foreign ministry. Since then, the Russian government has relaxed the policy for those unwilling to renew the contract. After canceling the agreement, Nepali youths have started returning to Moscow, the capital of Russia, from the war-torn region of Ukraine.
