Ukraine's military intelligence says North Korea has deployed a missile unit of about 90 personnel to Russia's Voronezh region, where it is expected to join Russia's 112th Missile Brigade. According to Reuters, the unit is reportedly equipped with up to 120 KN-23 and KN-24 ballistic missiles and six launchers for use in strikes against Ukraine. Kyiv says the deployment reflects Russia's increasing reliance on ballistic missiles, which are more difficult for Ukraine to intercept due to shortages of advanced air defense systems.
