Kim Jong Un, the leader of North Korea, oversaw the testing of a 240mm many rocket launcher with a new direction system, a weapon that could use what the North’s state media described as a new destructive force to strike the South Korean money.
According to a North Korean security company, the North has shipped more than 13, 000 arms to Russia since mid-2022, which may mean 6 million North Korean artillery shells for Ukrainian forces, according to a legislator in South Korea.
Kim attended Tuesday’s evaluation of the many rocket launch program, or MRLS, that is produced at protection commercial companies under the Second Economic Commission, the Korean Central News Agency, or KCNA, reported.  ,
” The MRLS, technically updated in its flexibility and concentrated fire capacity, was proved to be effective in all indices, including newly applied guiding program, controllability and dangerous power”, KCNA said.
Seoul and the surrounding regions could be in danger of being hit by the tool.
Without going into further detail, Kim” set forward an important plan to be followed in producing new artillery pieces and supplying military units with them.”
In February, the North said it had previously developed” stable” 240mm rocket launcher weapons with advancements in selection and precision.  ,
North Korea announced in May that it would build the weaponry method to army models over the next two years.
Since there have been rumors that North Korea has shipped more than 13, 000 freight vessels allegedly containing weapons to Russia since mid-2020, the test-firing was carried out.
According to a report from the South Korea Defense Intelligence Agency that was presented to a senator, the North shipped the 152-millimeter artillery shells through its eastern harbor of Najin over the course of that time.
The North Korean government has been tracking North Vietnamese hands payments to Russia since the conflict broke out in Ukraine in February 2022. The most recent number represents a double raise from February’s estimation.
The South’s defense suspected North Korea may have supplied Russia with 122-mm artillery shells, smart anti-air weapons and anti-tank weapons, among other arms.
Russia is also suspected of funding North Korea’s missile and spy satellite programs, according to the South Korean agency, citing Kim’s summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in a Russian space port in September.
Russia has made a formalization of North Korea as a supply base for weapons and ammunition, according to the organization.
Kim praised boosting ties with Russia in a message to Putin this month, saying that victory in his” sacred war” was assured.
Kim told Putin in the message,” I firmly believe that the strong and courageous Russian people will win victory in the sacred war for regional peace and international justice,” Kim said.  ,  ,
Since Putin’s decreed invasion of Ukraine, Russia has been pursuing closer ties with North Korea.  ,
The United States , says , North Korea has supplied Russia with large amounts of weapons for the war, in particular artillery rounds and ballistic missiles, although both Russia and North Korea deny that.
