Russian Security Council Secretary Sergey Shoigu has arrived in Pyongyang "on special instructions" from President Vladimir Putin. During his visit, he is expected to hold talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, according to the Russian Security Council.
Russian President Vladimir Putin declared Ukrainian forces pushed out of Kursk, but Ukraine insists its troops are still operating in the region.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reiterated that there is no encirclement of Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation following a today's report from Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrsky.
South Korea suspects North Korea is preparing to send more troops to Russia despite heavy losses and captured soldiers. Ukraine reports 11,000 North Korean troops in Russia, with over 3,000 casualties. This follows a defence pact signed by Pyongyang and Moscow in 2024.
