Un has stoked fears of an all-out World War 3 after he told Russia's top diplomat that North Korea is ready to "unconditionally support" all of Moscow's actions to resolve the conflict in Ukraine. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is on a three-day visit to North Korea and held high-level talks with the country's leader on Saturday (July 12).

North Korea currently supplies Russia with up to 40% of ammunition used in special operations. This was stated in an interview with Bloomberg by the head of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kirill Budanov*.
