Ukraine's Military Intelligence Agency Warns of Potential New Threat: North Korean Missiles in Russia. Ukraine's military intelligence agency has raised alarm bells over reports that a North Korean missile unit has started deploying to western Russia, sparking concerns about a potential new threat to the country's security. According to an official from the agency, the North Korean unit could be equipped with as many as 120 ballistic missiles and six launchers, which would significantly bolster Russia's capabilities for strikes against Ukraine. The development comes as Ukraine continues to face a prolonged and bloody conflict with Russia-backed separatists in the east of the country, and the possibility of North Korean involvement could further escalate tensions in the region.
