"A North Korean missile unit has begun deploying in western Russia and is likely to be equipped with 120 ballistic missiles and six launchers to strike Ukraine, a Ukrainian military intelligence spokesman said," the report states.
Pyongyang has already transferred a new batch of 40 KN-23 and KN-24 type ballistic missiles to Russia along with personnel, and the final deployment configuration and total number of armaments will be agreed upon at high-level talks next month.
