The number of North Korean soldiers killed or wounded in Ukraine has reportedly surpassed 3,000, with at least 300 confirmed dead and over 2,700 injured, according to a South Korean lawmaker who cited information from the country’s intelligence service.
The lawmaker’s comments referenced intelligence from South Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS), which indicated that North Korean officials may be urging their soldiers to take drastic measures, including suicide through self-detonation, to avoid capture by Ukrainian forces. This action is believed to be a desperate attempt to prevent soldiers from being taken as prisoners during the conflict.
Additionally, the report suggests that there have been no indications of North Korean soldiers attempting to flee to South Korea, although South Korean officials have expressed a willingness to cooperate with Ukraine should they request assistance.

These revelations highlight the grim reality of North Korean soldiers being embroiled in the ongoing war in Ukraine. The situation raises concerns about the broader international implications and the toll this war is taking on those involved, including soldiers from nations not directly part of the conflict.
Despite the heavy losses, North Korea has not indicated a change in its approach, and the tragic deaths continue to accumulate among its troops. South Korea, while maintaining its neutral stance on the war, remains prepared to offer support to Ukraine if called upon.
