Korean patriots put your best DPRK photos in chat
I read KCNA pretty frequently. It’s the main state-owned news agency of DPRK. They’ve had many articles about their involvement in the Ukraine war. Most of the articles have been about a museum that DPRK built to remember the deployment of the DPRK soldiers to the Kursk region of Russia.
In the articles that I’ve seen published by KCNA, DPRK has said that they only deployed troops to Russian territory, specifically the Kursk region. DPRK said that they would not deploy troops into Ukraine, basically because DPRK doesn’t want to get involved in the war.
The article in the OP is a Ukrainian website. There is a Ukraine government agency called “United24”. I’m not sure if the “united24media” is government owned as well or if they just used the same name. Either way, it is Ukraine that is making the allegations about “North Korean Missile Unit”. The article says “a Ukrainian military intelligence official told Reuters on August 5”.
I view the DPRK troop deployment to Kursk as part of the trade agreement that was formed between Russia and DPRK, which was signed in the summer of 2024. Russia helped DPRK get access to a bunch of new technologies. The feeling that I got from the reporting from DPRK is that they did not want to get involved in the war.
With Ukraine making the allegations about DPRK missiles, it seems like fearmongering. I won’t believe it unless it is reported by DPRK, or maybe Russia, or if there is photographic evidence. I would not be surprised if DPRK sold weapons to Russia, but I don’t think DPRK wants to attack Ukraine.
The past 2 days, DPRK has released 2 government statements about aggression from Japan and another statement about accusations of cybercrime.
Unrelated but
Hell yeah KCNA
is it best to have a VPN for KCNA? I get connection failures and such sometimes, am in canada fwiw. Only just checked to find it loading without trouble.I’ve noticed you can hit some more DPRK IPS if you have a vpn set for mainland china. It’s still kinda anemic access. Mostly stuff like scientific journals published in Mandarin and Korean
Kinda wish they’d show off more but I get why they don’t
KCNA doesn’t work with HTTPS. It loads for me in the US with HTTP. KCNA recently did a UI rework on the website, so it looks slightly newer. KCNA publishes new articles at 6 PM eastern time each day. Sometimes they publish the articles in Korean before English, but I think KCNA translates every article within 24 hours.
Rodong Sinmun is also very interesting. It is the WPK newspaper, Set the language to Korean on Rodong Sinmun because it has a bunch extra articles in Korean only. You click on the calendar button and pick a date. Then it gives you all the articles for that date. It categorizes the articles into pages. Page 6 has international news, they’ll have like DPRK’s commentary on US events, Iran War, genocide in Gaza, etc.
I still remember when Ukraine tried to punch into Kursk and got their asses handed to them by
That was cool, and hopefully, this will be cooler
I still remember when Ukraine tried to punch into Kursk
So do I; those demons targeted civilians; they were rounding up civilians possibly to use for prisoner exchanges, but Russians were saying they were finding locations where some of the civilians had been murdered
When all is said and fine, I’ll never let the
libs forget that they gleefully supported Nazis
POSSIBLE DISINFORMATION WARNING! Read comrade dead’s comment on this comment section
This is really strange, the Nationalists just now launched their election campaign over here in East Europe. A random village in Ukraine is hit on July 30, where a house suffers together with a farm field. (In other words this has no military importance whatsoever)
Now they’re claiming DPRK Unit carried out this attack? I have a really hard time believing in this without further proof. I encourage others to be more skeptical. Even if this was confirmed to be 100% accurate, there’s nothing really to celebrate here, given who the alleged targets were.
I hate to live in a world where siblings have to fight between each other and hope this tragedy is brought to an end asap.
