A senior Ukrainian official confirmed on Monday the nation’s troop fired on North Korean soldiers stationed in Kursk, a border region of Russia that Ukraine counter-invaded in August.

“The first DPRK soldiers have already come under fire in the Kursk region,” Andrii Kovalenko, the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council, announced on Monday in a post on the encrypted messaging application Telegram, the state outlet Ukrinform reported.
