Ukrainian Troops

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Thursday North Korean troops had suffered casualties in combat with Kyiv's forces and that some of the 11,000 troops sent to Russia's Kursk region had taken part in fighting.

North Korean troops have engaged in clashes against Ukrainian forces that are fighting in the Russian Kursk region, the New York Times reported.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday said Ukraine needed permission from its allies to fire long-range missiles into Russia in the face of a North Korean troop deployment there.

Russia's defence ministry said Tuesday that its forces had captured the eastern Ukrainian town of Selydove as Moscow's troops advance closer to the key logistics hub of Pokrovsk.

More than 200 wounded troops and civilians have been treated by a network of aesthetic medicine specialists across Ukraine, healing the badly scarred and burned free of charge.

A drone this week helped Ukrainian troops attack a military training facility of Russian troops in Zaporizhzhia Oblast in Russian-occupied southern Ukraine.

Russia said that it had swapped 95 Ukrainian soldiers held captive for an equal number of Russian troops in an exchange deal brokered by the United Arab Emirates.

Russia is preparing to deploy 10,000 North Korean soldiers in the fight against Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Thursday, citing intelligence information.

Ukrainian troops have seized 100 settlements in Russia since they broke into bordering Russia's Kursk region on August 6, Oleksandr Syrsky, Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, said.

President Vladimir Putin ordered his army on Monday to "dislodge" Ukrainian troops who have entered Russian territory as authorities said over 120,000 people had been evacuated away from the fighting.

Russia's army appeared to acknowledge Sunday that Ukrainian units had driven deep into the country, saying it had hit troops and equipment around 30 kilometres (20 miles) from the border.
