In the Kursk region, Ukrainian infantry and paratroopers, supported by M-1 tanks, created a 'road of death' in the vicinity of Zeleny Shlyakh for Russian troops, particularly the Russian 155th Marine Brigade. This is reported by Forbes analyst David Axe.

A quartet of Ukrainian formations – the 36th Marine Brigade, the 47th Mechanized Brigade, and the 82nd and 95th Air Assault Brigades – turned a short stretch of highway in the Kursk region of Russia into a 'road of death', – the article states.

The paratroopers of the 95th Air Assault Brigade managed to defeat an enemy group, destroying three Russian armored personnel carriers and killing 30 Russians.

Ukrainian forces entered Zeleny Shlyakh from the south with a column of T-64 and M-113 armored personnel carriers and blew up Russian vehicles on the move, also attacking from the west, killing seven sappers of the 155th Marine Brigade,» notes Axe.

Analysts found at least 17 destroyed Russian armored trucks, armored personnel carriers, and tanks in the Zeleny Shlyakh area.

Meanwhile, the Defense Forces seem to have not lost a single unit of armored vehicles in their recent counterattacks,.

Despite this, Russian troops are expecting reinforcements from a batch of North Korean soldiers any day now.

Recall that the United States does not know for what purpose the DPRK troops arrived in the Kursk region.

By the way, North Korea will soon send a second group of troops to Russia. This was reported by Bloomberg, citing South Korean intelligence documents.

Recall that President Volodymyr Zelensky, citing intelligence, stated that as of October 27-28, the first DPRK military will be used by Russia in combat zones.

The National Intelligence Service of South Korea believes that North Korea has already sent about 3,000 military personnel to the Russian Federation to support Russian occupiers in the war against Ukraine.

As reported, North Korea's military stockpiles will allow it to conduct combat operations for three months. The South Korean agency Yonhap notes that DPRK factories have been operating at full capacity to meet the needs of the Russian armed forces in weapons.
