Director of the Kyiv Scientific Institute of Forensic Expertise Oleksandr Ruvin previously notedthat the DPRK missiles used by Russia during its strikes on Ukraine, including Kharkiv, are almost identical to Russian Iskander-M missiles.

"We can confirm several cases of Russian use of North Korean missiles. On February 14, Russia hit Ukraine with at least six such missiles.

North Korea's KN-23 ballistic missiles have their own specifics and features, including flying faster than Russian ones. But in general, they are almost the same as the Iskander-M.

We found a part of such a North Korean missile after the attack on Kyiv on January 2 on Mokra Street (formerly Kudryashova Street) in Solomyansky district, where a nine-story building was damaged and four people were killed," Ruvin said.
