Russia’s war against Ukraine is becoming increasingly internationalized through Moscow’s military cooperation with foreign partners. North Korea has supplied Russia with artillery, ballistic missiles and troops; Ukrainian officials now say up to 50,000 North Korean troops could eventually be deployed in Russia. A North Korean missile unit has also reportedly deployed to Russia’s Voronezh region.

North Korea’s military involvement has expanded significantly since Russia and North Korea signed a strategic partnership treaty in 2024. Ukraine says North Korean missiles have already been used against Ukrainian targets, while Kyiv warns that Pyongyang is gaining battlefield experience and access to military technology through its cooperation with Moscow.
