"Russia Deploys North Korean Missiles, Eyes Iranian Arsenal for Ukraine Conflict"
TL;DR
The White House has revealed that Russia has used North Korean ballistic missiles in its conflict with Ukraine and is seeking to purchase missile systems from Iran. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby described this as a "significant and concerning escalation" in North Korea's support for Russia. The U.S. plans to address these violations at the UN Security Council, impose additional sanctions, and continue supporting Ukraine with military aid. Kirby emphasized the urgency for Congress to approve supplemental funding for Ukraine to counter these developments.
