FOOTAGE appears to show North Korean troops marching alongside Russian soldiers at a military base near Vladivostok as Putin’s men debate “what the f**k to do with them”. The hordes of men could be gearing up to storm the frontline after the US confirmed that at least 3,000 of Kim Jong Un’s troops had entered Russian territory. Tyrant Putin and ruthless dictator Kim Jong-un have long had a close relationship Avalon.redFootage analysed by The Washington Post appeared to show North Korean troops training in Russia[/caption] Footage previously emerged showing Kim’s troops allegedly being trained up inside Russia Kim Jong Un commands one of the world’s largest armies – with some 1.2 million men Video analysed by The Washington Post showed hordes of men who appeared to be of Korean descent at Sergeevka military training ground – near Russia’s eastern border with North Korea. The clips also included audible Korean phrases spoken with a North Korean accent. And audio intercepted by Ukrainian intelligence shows Russian soldiers talking offensively about the Korean troops – calling them “the f*****g Chinese”. One even says: “And he’s like standing there with his eyes out, like… f**k… He came here and says what the f**k to do with them.” Kyiv’s intercepted clips reveal possible plans to issue one interpreter and three senior officers for every 30 Pyongyang troops. It showed the soldiers movements as concentrated in the Postoyalye Dvory field camp in Russia’s Kursk region, where Ukraine launched a surprise invasion earlier this year. Ukraine, South Korea and the US have voiced deep concern about possible military cooperation between the two. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said on Wednesday: “We assess that between early- to mid-October, North Korea moved at least 3,000 soldiers into eastern Russia.” He added that it’s a “highly concerning probability” the Pyongyang soldiers are there to fight against Ukraine. The security chief warned: “After completing training, these soldiers could travel to western Russia and then engage in combat against the Ukrainian military.” Ukrainian intelligence has estimated that some 12,000 troops – including three generals – will be dispatched to Russia. They told the Post that one such group has already arrived in Kursk – where US officials feared they might be sent. Kim Jong Un lords over one of the world’s largest militaries – with some 1.2 million soldiers. According to South Korea’s spy agency, special operations troops known as the “Storm Corps” have been sent to Russia. They are among the best trained and equipped of all the North Korean units. Just days ago a North Korean flag was apparently spotted next to a Russian one in Ukrainian territory. A blurry photo, allegedly taken near the besieged key city of Pokrovsk showed the two flags flying between the trenches. It implied that Korean troops had been deployed to the trenches, marking the first time a third country has put boots on the ground in the three-year conflict waged by Putin inside Ukraine. In recent weeks other footage has emerged of what Ukrainian intelligence claims are Kim’s troops training at Russia’s military bases. Dramatic videos from the Far East of Russia allegedly show Kim’s soldiers being given battlefield equipment and taking part in strict military training. Other footage appears to show North Korean troops posing for photos in Moscow’s Red Square. Both Moscow and Pyongyang have denied the presence of North Korean troops.
