Russians ‘burning faces’ of dead North Koreans to keep them secret: Zelenskyy
Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy claims Russian forces are burning the faces of dead North Korean soldiers to hide their involvement in Ukraine.
He says North Koreans are now being deployed in significant numbers, particularly in Russia’s Kursk region, where 200 have reportedly been killed or wounded.
The U.S. confirmed indications of North Korean casualties, while South Korea imposed sanctions on officials and entities involved in North Korea-Russia military cooperation.
This would be great for defectors. Harder to tell who died and who found freedom.

It's not like DNA testing wouldn't confirm they're Koreans. They're just wasting fuel doing this.
13 2 ReplyA picture is worth 1000 words.
Pictures of DNA don't tell laymen much about who is involved.
11 1 ReplyIdk a pic of 200 dead men with their face burned off might do something.

I'm sure that the CIA backed Radio Free Asia doesn't have a US bias slant
19 109 Reply... Are you saying there aren't any north Koreans involved in the war?
Because at this point that is akin to denying the sun is warm.
57 5 ReplyDon't waste your keystrokes to argue, it's an .ml idiot.
19 6 ReplyThat you're trying to claim that I've said things that I did not. I'm saying that radio free Asia is CIA propaganda that puts a western slant on their propaganda.

Cool. Here's the newsweek article on the same thing that has a link to Zelensky's Twitter post where he says the thing. https://www.newsweek.com/zelensky-says-russian-troops-burning-faces-killed-north-korean-soldiers-2001980
33 1 ReplyNewsweek is also trash, but for different reasons.
12 4 ReplyNewsweek has been unable to independently verify the video or Zelensky's allegations.
Awesome.
Like NK soldiers are there and we know they're there. This explanation doesn't seem to pass the straight face test.

It does, but that doesn't necessarily mean its reporting is false.

All you're doing is saying "it's okay to be biased when it supports my side."
5 11 ReplyGreat comeback. When people are quoting the literal CIA funded outlet Radio Free Asia as a source, which is known for making outrageous claims against any enemy of America without evidence, say "Russia and China bad" and poof everything is proven.
