Tried to smash his head against a pole: paratroopers recount how they captured a North Korean soldier.


The Ukrainian Armed Forces captured a soldier from North Korea, who at that Time began to bang his head against a pole. The press service of the Air Assault Forces reported this.
A drone operator detected a moving body on the battlefield after North Korean troops had completed an assault on Ukrainian positions. The military checked this individual but realized that he was not a Ukrainian soldier.
Quote:
«As we approached closer, we saw narrow eyes, we saw that the uniform was not ours, the armor was not ours. He did not respond to Russian, English, or Ukrainian,» - the message stated.
The North Korean captive was found with a grenade and a knife during a search. He also had sausage for food. However, when he was delivered to the place where he was to be picked up, he behaved strangely and the military had to forcibly pull him out of the trench.
Quote:
«We were leading him to the road. There, along the road, there were concrete poles, and he ran straight into a pole. He fell not on his stomach as he hit, but turned over onto his back. I think he was pretending on purpose so that we would approach him; he could grab a weapon from us and do something to us,» - recounts the soldier.
Later it turned out that the captive was well received and given assistance; he also asked to be shown romantic movies.
Initially, it was reported that 300 North Korean soldiers were killed and 2700 were wounded in the fighting for the Kursk region. Moreover, Ukrainian troops captured two North Korean soldiers who were fighting on the side of North Korea against Ukraine.
One of these soldiers wants to stay in Ukraine, while the other wants to return to North Korea. This is evidenced by the video shared by President Zelensky.
