The U.S. Department of Defense sees no evidence suggesting that North Korean soldiers are present in the occupied territories of Ukraine or are moving in that direction.

This was stated by Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh during a briefing on November 25, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.

"We don't have any indications that there are DPRK soldiers in Ukraine," the U.S. defense official said in response to journalists' questions.
