Make your own conclusions, but I think it seems pretty believable that there are DPRK troops in Ukraine. Doesn't seem like it changes the war regardless, but interesting update.

edit: according to a comrade of mine that speaks Korean, they said it's kinda hard to say. The last translation seems a bit off, like the person is overstating that he wants to stay in Ukraine, but it's still overall unverified that they are actually DPRK soldiers.

I'm kinda stumped on this one

This proves nothing other than the depraved lengths the fascists will go to try to convince people that the DPRK sent troops into ukraine.

There is no evidence of where this video was made. There is no evidence that the man in the bed was a DPRK soldier, No uniform, no dog tags, no passport, no ID of any kind.

What is quite clear are the signs of torture. That bug eyed stare and dissociative body language is exactly the same in videos of recently released Palestinian prisoners. That man clearly would say anything to appease his captors.

All this is is a video of a man who has been tortured and according to redditors speaks and looks like a North Korean. His words hold no value because they are clearly not his own words. If ukraine and the CIA can organize assassinations of top generals inside Russia they can organize kidnapping a migrant worker and torture him.

If anything this video confirms my belief that there are no DPRK soldiers involved in the fighting in Ukraine, or that if there are, the ukrainians are unable to capture them alive or even dead.

The man is from potentially eastern Russia and is Russian. I saw another post about the same guys where they posted the ID. They just found an asian and said they were DPRK soldiers as if Russia isnt also in Asia.

Edit: see my comment for more context

It's disturbing for sure. There is no way he's saying what he actually wants to be saying, whoever he is. It looks like the kind of footage you'd see in a movie about a serial killer kidnapping someone.
