Putin 'plans to deploy thousands of North Korean soldiers to dig tunnels beneath the front lines, and attack Ukraine from the rear'
- Russia has already used tunnels twice in the conflict, according to analysts
North Korea is believed to be sending thousands of tunnelling troops to Russia to open a new 'underground front' on the border with Ukraine as part of a deal with Vladimir Putin.
Kyiv suspects that military engineers being sent by Kim Jong Un are not for 'restoration work' in the Donbas, as stated, but for an ulterior purpose.
Russia has already used tunnels twice in the conflict, in Avdiivka and Toretsk, says United Ukraine analyst Aleksey Kushch, who has warned of a Putin bid to break the war 'deadlock' by digging tunnels in summer and autumn.
'Judging by various sources, approximately five engineering brigades of the North Korean army may arrive in Donbas,' he said.
If so, this could be 15,000 men, or more. Kushch said it was 'illogical' that they are working on 'restoration' while the war is 'in full swing'.
