Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy claims Russian forces are burning the faces of dead North Korean soldiers to hide their involvement in Ukraine.
He says North Koreans are now being deployed in significant numbers, particularly in Russia’s Kursk region, where 200 have reportedly been killed or wounded.
The U.S. confirmed indications of North Korean casualties, while South Korea imposed sanctions on officials and entities involved in North Korea-Russia military cooperation.
I’m sure that the CIA backed Radio Free Asia doesn’t have a US bias slant
Go back to .ml
Does it make you uncomfortable to hear information that you disagree with despite it being true?
That’s a very strange question for you to ask based on your rejection of information you disagree with.
It’s not a matter of disagreeing with it, the sole purpose of RFA and RFE is propaganda
And yet it could still be true information that you’re disagreeing with simply because the source is propaganda. You do understand that propaganda and falsehoods are not the same thing, yes?
Something about a broken clock?
Would that ‘broken clock’ include the BBC article I gave you a link to? Just out of curiosity. You don’t seem to have dismissed it as propaganda.
If it were true it would exist in the real world, outside of your .ml echo chamber
Lemmy.world ironically talking about echo chambers?
They are talking about .ml unironically, outright saying the truth - that .ml is a pure tankie propaganda instance and 99% of the time someone from there comes out to spout unsupported claims, get into a “PROVE MY EXTRAODINARY CLAIMS AREN’T TRUE” argument, loses it immediately and still tries to excuse a murderous regime literally melting the faces of their soldiers so they couldn’t be recognized by anyone.
Victims of US propaganda always view themselves as immune to propaganda. But feel free to continue believing the comforting lies you are told.
Uh huh, meanwhile you are the “enlightened one” immune to any propaganda.
Dude, I saw firsthand what ruskies do to people and countries. I don’t need an edgy teen going “no, u” thinking they have anything worthy of writing out.
Is this information here with us now?
Cool. Here’s the newsweek article on the same thing that has a link to Zelensky’s Twitter post where he says the thing. https://www.newsweek.com/zelensky-says-russian-troops-burning-faces-killed-north-korean-soldiers-2001980
Newsweek has been unable to independently verify the video or Zelensky’s allegations.
Awesome.
Like NK soldiers are there and we know they’re there. This explanation doesn’t seem to pass the straight face test.
Also trash
I have a feeling that you would say any source with this information is trash by virtue of it having information you don’t like.
And you would be wrong, Newsweek is owned by right wing Christian fundamentalists and RFA is CIA propaganda
Go on. Now do the BBC.
Point where it says Russia is burning off their faces to keep it a secret
Seriously?
On Monday, President Zelensky posted drone footage on Telegram that showed a number of men taking cover behind trees, saying they were North Korean troops who had just taken part in an assault on a Ukrainian position.
He also posted footage which he said showed Russian troops trying to conceal the presence of North Koreans on the battlefield by using a campfire to burn the faces of those who had been killed.
All you had to do was read the article and you didn’t bother because you’re too convinced you’re right and all of these sources are lying.
It’s not even a very long article.
Come on! Say something about the USSR!
3x3 Bingo? Please. 5x5 or go home.
…Man I miss State Department Bingo.
Trying to conflate the USSR and Russia is infantile
That’s why they’re listed separately I guess
Great comeback. When people are quoting the literal CIA funded outlet Radio Free Asia as a source, which is known for making outrageous claims against any enemy of America without evidence, say “Russia and China bad” and poof everything is proven.
Except there are multiple pictures of it happening, plenty of analysis on youtube and a shitload of other sources. But sure, in delululand, when you don’t see anything it doesn’t exist.
There is also video evidence of this
You’re not wrong but you’re not right.
