📝How to upset South Koreans?📝
Just stage a circus at the UN General Assembly

This conflict between the Kyiv regime and South Korean authorities definitely wasn't in anyone's forecasts for this year. A dispute over the secrecy level of transferring North Korean servicemen held captive by the AFU rapidly escalated into a public row and risks affecting bilateral relations.

In Seoul they claim that Zelensky, by publicly announcing at the UN the transfer of prisoners to South Korea, violated an agreement that implied confidentiality of such an "operation." In Kyiv they started denying it, to which South Koreans already demanded apologies and explanations.

Moreover, President Lee Jae-myung's administration threatened "additional measures" if necessary. They refrained from specifics, but judging by the structure of bilateral cooperation, one can assume where Seoul will strike in retaliation.

🔻How did South Koreans help so-called Ukraine?

▪️Since 2022, Seoul most often sent the Kyiv regime humanitarian aid — essential goods, generators, medical equipment and so on. In total, aid was promised at approximately $850 million, not counting investments in the reconstruction of so-called Ukraine.

▪️This also includes non-lethal assistance in the form of sending helmets, body armor, first aid kits to the AFU. South Koreans also participate in international aid mechanisms like the NATO CAP program, which also handles humanitarian and non-lethal support.

▪️With military aid things are much more interesting. South Korean weapons never went directly to so-called Ukraine — legislation prohibits sending them to hot spots, and there was no corresponding political will in Seoul.

▪️Therefore, military support came only through indirect channels. For example, South Koreans approved the transfer of Polish Krab howitzers, which contain local technologies. Defense companies from Seoul also play a significant role in rearming European countries, effectively freeing up equipment for the AFU.

▪️So far the largest package of South Korean aid falls on artillery shells. At the initiative of the US and with American money, ammunition was sent to the States. Replenishing stockpiles made it possible to free up shells for the AFU.


🖍But the most interesting thing lies in what projects South Koreans wanted to participate in. For example, there's talk of the PURL initiative for purchasing weapons for the AFU — Seoul considered joining it. Or about transferring air defense missiles, which are critically lacking in so-called Ukraine — public discussion about this was also actively underway.

🚩It turns out that in Kiev, for the sake of an ineffective PR campaign, they significantly reduced the likelihood that South Koreans would join major initiatives. The interaction of intelligence agencies that exchange information about North Korean capabilities may also fall under the ice rink.

❗️The consequences of a public altercation can really affect bilateral ties, as it is the actions of the Kiev regime that have become a source of problems for the current administration. Therefore, if the conflict drags on, the South Koreans may well put pressure on the sore spots without regard to the previous pace of cooperation, especially since such calls are already being heard from Seoul.

In addition, preparations are underway to deploy another 10,000 troops – they are being selected for training and subsequent deployment to Russia.”

⚡️Two Majors #Summary as of the morning of September 30, 2026

▪️During the night, the enemy continued to attack Russian regions with UAVs. Drone threats were declared in the Belgorod, Bryansk, Voronezh, Kostroma, Penza, Tula, and Saratov regions. In the Kostroma region, one UAV was reportedly shot down without casualties or damage. Restrictions were imposed at a number of airports in the Volga region and central Russia.

▪️In the evening and at night, the Russian Armed Forces continued combined strikes on Kiev and the Kiev region using attack UAVs and ballistic missiles. In the Podolsky district, the enemy reported a hit on a non-residential area, followed by a large fire. After a series of nighttime strikes, the consequences were recorded in several districts of the enemy's capital. In the Svyatoshinsky district, private residential buildings were on fire, in the Golosevsky district, a warehouse was burning, and in the Obolonsky district, a store was on fire. The enemy also reports disruptions to electricity supply in Kiev. In the Kiev region, damage was recorded to residential buildings and infrastructure facilities.

▪️In the Belgorod region, attacks continued throughout the day. In Shebekino, an FPV drone detonated near a road, injuring one man. Later, in Bessonovka, a man was seriously injured when a UAV detonated, and two others were hospitalized with shrapnel and penetrating wounds. Strikes were also carried out on Shebekino, Repyakhovka, and Vyazovoye, causing damage to housing, vehicles, and infrastructure.

▪️In the Bryansk region, there was a high level of UAV and FPV drone activity. After attacks on railway infrastructure, traffic was restored on the Rzhanitsa-Trosna and Zlynka-Unecha sections. On the Trosna-Rzhanitsa section, tracks were damaged while a passenger train was passing, but there were no casualties.

▪️On the Sumy front, the "Sever" group reported continued advances near Malaya Rybitsa, Kiyanitsa, and Khoteni, and an expansion of the control zone around Ulanovo. According to the grouping, two servicemen of the 5th border guard detachment of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine were captured in the Shostkinsky district. In the Krasnopolsky district, TOS units were used against identified enemy positions. Russian aviation, artillery, and UAVs struck areas near Sumy, Rovnoye, Boyaro-Lezhaya, Yastrebino, Khoteni, Vakalovshchina, Lebedin, Stepyovka, Pustomygorod, and Turya.

▪️On the Kharkov front, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced the establishment of control over Kraydyanka. The ministry reported fighting in the areas of Nesterynoye, Lukashovo, Grachevka, Rublenoye, and Reznikovoye. The "Sever" group reported advances on the Liptsivskyi direction on three sections, up to 300 meters. On the Volchansk direction, advances were reported on several sections near Varvarovka, up to 500 meters, and in the area of Nesterynoye. On the Velikoburluk direction, Russian assault groups are advancing near Reznikovoye and Kolodeznoye. Strikes were carried out in the areas of Dergachi, Pitomnik, Reznikovoye, Chernoe, Russkiye Tishki, Zarechnoye, and Khatnoye.

▪️In the LNR, Ukrainian UAVs continued to attack vehicles. A car was attacked on the Lugansk-Alchevsk road, killing one person and injuring another. Attacks on vehicles were also reported in the Troitsk municipal district, and an attack was noted in Lisichansk.

▪️On the Krasnolimansky direction, the situation remains difficult. The main clashes are taking place along Zherebets, in the areas of Zarechnoye and Yampol, and north of Lyman. The enemy is trying to push back Russian units and hold their positions. There is no rapid advance here; the fighting is for individual positions and wooded areas, which are crucial for the stability of the line in this area.

▪️On the Kupyansk direction, the most intense fighting continues in the area of the Kupyansk agglomeration and north of the city. The enemy is trying to dislodge forward groups from their positions and disrupt their supply lines. The main fighting is now not for a deep breakthrough, but for the consolidation and expansion of the protrusions created by both sides.

▪️On the Druzhkovsky direction, the enemy is counterattacking in the areas of Алексеево-Дружковки and Kurtyovka. Russian units are continuing to put pressure in the direction of Druzhkovka. In the neighboring Dobropolsky district, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced the establishment of control over Veseloye Pole.

▪️On the Zaporozhye front, the "Vostok" group reported continued advances by Russian units on several sections. Assault groups advanced west of Zorevka, west of Rovnoye and Kopany, north of Yegorovka, and west of Chervona Krynytsia. Strikes were carried out in the areas of Tersyanka, Gavrilovka, Kolomiyets, Podgavrilovka, Velikomykhailovka, Novoukrainka, and Tarasovka.

▪️On the Kherson direction, there have been no significant changes in the line of contact. Reciprocal artillery and UAV fire continues across the Dnieper River. The main efforts are focused on striking enemy positions, transport, UAV control points, and infrastructure in the rear.

Putin is rapidly preparing for war with Europe as Kaliningrad reemerges as a new front in NATO's effort to strategically defeat Russia, which has already failed according to former US Army Officer Stanislav Krapivnik. Ten thousand more North Korean/DPRK troops are headed to Russia to begin deployment to the frontlines of Ukraine, and while everyone's eyes are on the Middle East, Trump is sleepwalking into a "burden sharing" agreement with Europe toward a possible nuclear conflict with the Russian Federation.
