Photos and videos of dead North Korean soldiers in Kursk region have been recorded, they are found with Russian passports, and Russians burn their faces to make it impossible to identify them, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said.

“As for the POWs, there are no captives among them, but we have photos, videos of the killed North Korean soldiers, they are almost all found with Russian passports, with documents of the Russian Federation. We have it all, it's all recorded. Then, so that they cannot be recognized, we have recorded videos and photos, where Russians burn their faces,” Zelenskyy said at a press conference in Brussels on Thursday.

The President added that the Ukrainian services can share this, but it is possible that this information is already in the media.

“Yes, they [Russians] burn their [North Korean soldiers] faces. The same thing they did with their military: they burned them completely, and those who were not burned, they were left on the ground to rot, and in this case they burn their faces. We record all this, we see it,” the president noted.
