(A) North Korean Cannon Fodder Reported Back in the Fight

North Korean soldiers were "brought in again" by Russia to the embattled Kursk Oblast, President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his evening address on 7 Feb.

Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi briefed Zelensky about new Russian attacks in Kursk Oblast, a day after Russian media claimed Ukraine had launched a new offensive in the Russian region.

"A significant number of occupiers have been eliminated, we are talking hundreds of Russian and North Korean servicemen," the president said.

The New York Times reported on 30 Jan that North Korean troops had been pulled from the front, and a spokesperson confirmed that Ukraine's special forces had not faced Pyongyang's soldiers for three weeks.

Moreover, President Zelenskyy said that "Putin is not preparing for negotiations, not for peace, but for the continuation of the war, and not only against us, against Ukraine. They are now increasing their army by more than 100,000 more soldiers. All partners should know about this and should see it. We are ready to pass on the relevant information, and the relevant communication is already taking place through the intelligence line."

(B) Drone Impact on Russian Soldiers

Near the village of Terny in Donetsk region, as soon as he heard the sound of a drone, a Russian infantryman decided not to wait and killed himself with a grenade. The suicide was filmed by soldiers of the 98th battalion of the 60th separate mechanized Ingulets brigade.

(C) Russia Spreading Agitprop About NATO and Zelensky

Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) is claiming NATO member states are plotting to oust Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky from power by discrediting him, and then holding elections to switch up leadership in the war-torn country.

The SVR said NATO is guided by the uncertainty regarding the continuation of military aid to Kyiv from the new US administration led by President Donald Trump. NATO hopes to "freeze" the conflict, however Zelensky remains the main obstacle to the implementation of such a plan, it said. There is no indication that such a plot exists.

Russian soldiers continue getting slaughtered against Ukraine and their morale must be at an all time low thanks to drone warfare. Next week NATO will be convening the Ministers of Defense Summit where military assistance to Ukraine will be the main topic. The Kremlin is attempting to sow discord within NATO before the conference with the propaganda that President Zelensky is corrupt and an obstacle to peace. In Brussels expect sycophantic USSECDEF Pete Hegseth to parrot the same Kremlin lines by asking for elections in Ukraine.
