SEOUL, South Korea—North Korea has likely supplied several types of missiles to Russia to support its war in Ukraine, along with its widely reported shipments of ammunition and shells, South Korea’s military said Thursday.
The assessment was released a day after South Korea’s spy service told lawmakers that North Korea recently provided more than a million artillery shells to Russia amid deepening military cooperation between the two countries, both key US adversaries.
In a private briefing with lawmakers on Wednesday, the National Intelligence Service—South Korea’s main spy agency—said that more than a million North Korean artillery shells have been sent to Russia since August via ships and transport planes. The NIS said the shells roughly amounted to two months’ worth of supplies for the Russians, according to lawmaker Yoo Sang-bum, who attended the NIS briefing.
