U.S. Ambassador to NATO Julian Smith said that North Korea has sent more than a thousand containers of military equipment and ammunition to Russia, as seen on satellite images.

The American side has information, confirmed by satellite images, that North Korea has delivered more than thousand containers of ammunition to Russia. This was announced on Wednesday during an online briefing by US Ambassador to NATO Julian Smith, writes UNN.

We have new information that the DPRK has recently delivered even more weapons to Russia for use in the war against Ukraine, and our information indicates that the DPRK has provided Russia with over a thousand containers of military equipment and ammunition,

- Julia Smith noted.

Details

Smith reported on the availability of satellite images showing the movement of these containers from North Korea to Russia on cargo ships.

We strongly condemn the DPRK for providing the Russians with such equipment, which will undoubtedly be used to attack the Ukrainian people, Ukrainian cities, and in Russia's further illegal war,

- said the Ambassador.

According to her, the United States believes that Pyongyang wants to receive other military technologies from Russia in exchange for ammunition. It is possible that Pyongyang's "wish list" includes fighter jets, surface-to-air missiles, armored vehicles, equipment for the production of ballistic missiles and other weapons.

Smith emphasized that the United States will continue to monitor the situation and identify any attempts to supply Russia with weapons.

Recall

As UNN wrote, in October, North Korea began to transfer artillery to Russia to strengthen the army of Russia, which does not abandon its intentions to seize Ukrainian territories.
