👆 Exclusive. How North Korean soldiers are equipped with Russian equipment

Recently received footage that is no more than 72 hours old. This is the Serhiyiv training ground in the Far East of Russia.

What’s the response going to be like from the rest of the world? It’s a big escalation to have another country join.

Wait until these poor bastards find out what drone combat is like. It'll blow their minds.

I am flabbergasted that Russia has training grounds. This is not a joke. I thought they just put you in a green overall, give you a 60 year old gun in one hand and a bottle of vodka in the other. And that’s it. Off you go!

The one with the rifle shoots.

The one without, follows him. When the one with the rifle gets killed, the one who is following picks up the rifle and shoots!

I think they do jumping jacks at the train station before loading them onto cattle cars for the front.

That must be one of the shittiest concrete fences ever "made".

I'm glad I'm not the only one. It's just some rebar, poorly covered in concrete. Like something a set designer would make for a cheap dystopian movie.

I wonder what the North Koreans think of Russia. Like did they arrive and think, “what a shithole”? You know Kim can’t have them seeing anything decent or they will defect.

I wonder if the language barrier will be an issue for these troops. Not sure how many norks speak Russian, but I’d imagine not many in the military would.

My guess is they will be compartmentalized to their own unit(s), with dual speakers coordinating with Russian units/leadership. Though, like you say, there probably aren't very many of those, so these units will be particularly at risk if their rare dual speaker gets taken out. They could probably mitigate this a bit by having dual speakers in safer locations one tier up the command chain.

This all assumes they will be in front-line roles. It is possible they will get assigned to safer duties, freeing up Russian soldiers to go to the front.

The hardest part is keeping track of all their booster seats. They have some very short people

Lack of proper nutrition has a tendency to do that.

If your a dictator, you ALWAYS keep your army fed.
