Addendum

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning rejected these accusations, emphasizing that China allegedly "strictly controls the export of dual-use goods, including drones, and opposes the use of civilian drones for military purposes.

On October 16, Zelenskyy reported that Ukrainian intelligence recorded not only the transfer of weapons from North Korea to Russia, but also the transfer of people.
