US raises alarm over North Korea's military aid to Russia in Ukraine war
Summary: The U.S. is increasingly concerned about North Korea's military support for Russia in its war against Ukraine. Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell noted that North Korea is supplying materials like artillery and missiles, raising alarms among U.S. allies.
In response, the U.S., South Korea, and Japan have formed a multinational team with eight Western nations to monitor sanctions against North Korea. This comes after Russia vetoed a U.N. resolution that would have allowed for better oversight of North Korean arms sales.
Tensions are also rising on the Korean Peninsula, with North Korea making threats against South Korea and destroying infrastructure that linked the two countries. U.S. and allied officials condemned North Korea's actions and reaffirmed their commitment to regional security.
