RUSSIA has suffered its deadliest day of war yet again after pushing thousands of North Korean troops to the frontlines to fight against Ukraine.
Putin’s army has lost more than 2,200 troops over the past 24 hours, but the brutal dictator is hellbent on sending more men to the meatgrinder war.

This brings the total casualties on the Russian side to 770,420, according to the Russian media outlet Pravada.
Almost 20,000 drones, 10,000 tanks and hundreds of warships, planes and helicopters have all been eliminated from the dictator’s arsenal, Kyiv has claimed.
Russia’s staggering death toll marks the Russian tyrant’s most damaging period of his over 1,000-day-old conflict so far.
The previous highest was 2,000 on November 29.
Troops from Pyongyang have suffered “several hundred” casualties while fighting in the last few weeks, according to the White House and US military.
One US official said: “Several hundred casualties is our latest estimate that the DPRK has suffered.
“This includes everything from… light wounds up to being KIA [killed in action].”
New drone videos have been released by Ukraine‘s military claiming to show North Korean fighters (DPRK) on the front line and the bodies of slain Russian and Korean soldiers stacked together.
Ukraine’s GUR military intelligence separately confirmed North Korea had suffered “significant losses” over two days of fighting and that “at least 30 soldiers were killed and wounded”.
One video is said to show the bodies of dozens of dead Korean soldiers laid out by Putin’s forces after the weekend’s major clash in the Kursk region.
A number of corpses can be seen lying side-by-side under a dusting of snow with their faces covered.
Another, released by Ukraine’s Khorne Group, claims to show North Koreans hiding in snow-covered woodland and firing guns.
The soldiers in the video can be seen cowering from the drones flying above them while holding large weapons.
A spokesperson for the Khorne Group said: “The long-awaited North Koreans.
“Weakness and bravery are their tactics, their trump card is good fitness.”
They said the soldiers were “applying the same tactics as 70 years ago,” alluding to the Korean War.
A third video released by 95th Air Assault Brigade shows soldiers it identifies as DPRK fighters hiding amongst vast snowy fields and lobbing missiles at the overhead drones.
But despite the harrowing figures continuing to soar Russia has found success on the battlefield.
Damaging projections say Russia has managed to gain just under 100 square miles in October.
They are capturing territory the size of two football pitches every minute, according to the US-based Institute for the Study of War.
Russian forces have focused their blitz attacks around Kupiansk, in northeastern Kharkiv province, and Khurakove in southern Donbas.
UK Defence Secretary John Healey has warned the 600-mile frontline is now at the most unstable it has been since February 2022.
Putin called on his pals over in North Korea for extra support to fight back against a surging Ukraine earlier this year.
Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un handed over around 10,000 troops to be trained by Russia before being deployed on the frontlines in Kursk.
The Kremlin has also been hard at work creating a new chilling hypersonic missile which Putin has already unleashed on Ukraine.
The feared “Oreshnik” has been described as far superior to any other weapon in Russia’s arsenal.
Putin has even claimed it can turn almost anything it hits into dust.
