Zelensky: Russia Using North Korean Ballistic Missiles Against Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused Russia of deploying North Korean ballistic missiles in overnight strikes on the city of Zaporizhzhia, killing at least six civilians and wounding 19 others.

In a video address, Zelensky declared for the first time that Russia cannot wage war without reinforcements from North Korea, marking a significant escalation in his rhetoric regarding Pyongyang's military role in the conflict.

Overnight fighting also saw Ukrainian forces strike warehouses of Russian online retailer Wildberries in Voronezh. Earlier drone attacks on Tatarstan, over 1,100 km from the front line, killed at least 13 people.
