Jonas Orman, representative of ‘Blue-Yellow’, a Lithuanian non-profit organization (NGO) supporting the Ukrainian military, told local media LRT on the 28th (local time), “The first visual contact between the Ukrainian military units we support and the North Korean military was on October 25. “It took place in Kursk,” he said. “As far as I know, all Koreans (North Korean soldiers) died except one. “One of the survivors had documents showing that he was Buryat,” he said.
The Buryat people are an indigenous people of Mongolian descent living in the Russian Republic of Buryatia, north of Mongolia. There has been speculation that Russia may be issuing local identification cards to North Korean soldiers to disguise them as its citizens.
