Up to 25,000 North Korean workers reportedly employed in Russian drone production

Ukrainska Pravda reports that Russia is using fake student visas to employ up to 25,000 North Korean workers at the Alabuga facility for drone production, which are used in the war against Ukraine. The claim is sourced from Ukrainian intelligence and is not independently verified. This indicates deepening military cooperation between Russia and North Korea, potentially expanding North Korea's role in Russia's defense industrial base.
