Russia is reported to be recruiting up to 25,000 North Koreans to assemble drones, according to data highlighted in a recent analysis. The recruitment effort is linked to Pyongyang’s broader support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
The United Nations says that the North Korean workers are employed in Russia to build drones, while most of their pay is seized by Kim Jong‑un’s regime; Pyongyang has also helped staff and arm Russian forces. The UN report confirms that the wages earned by the North Korean laborers are largely confiscated by the regime.
