U.S. Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin has said on Wednesday that North Korean troops are in Russia and that there is evidence of it. "There is evidence that there are DPRK troops in Russia," Austin was quoted by news organisations as saying, in Rome. He has said that if they are participating in the war alongside Russia against Ukraine, it is very, very serious.

Meanwhile, another report by news organisation said that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Wednesday visited missile bases to examine their readiness, citing growing U.S. nuclear threat.
