North Korean leader Kim Jong Un observed tests of newly developed reconnaissance and attack drones this week, emphasizing the importance of drones and AI in advancing his armed forces. The drones demonstrated the ability to track multiple targets, monitor troop movements, and carry out various attack missions. Kim approved plans to increase production of these drones. Tensions on the Korean Peninsula have been escalating as Kim expands his military capabilities, including nuclear-capable weapons and intercontinental ballistic missiles. North Korea has also sent troops and military equipment to support Russia in the war in Ukraine, raising concerns about potential technology transfers and the strengthening of North Korea’s nuclear-armed military. South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff reported that North Korea sent around 3,000 additional troops to Russia in January and February, and estimates that around 4,000 North Korean troops sent to fight in Ukraine have been killed or injured. The South Korean Defense Ministry did not comment on the latest tests of North Korean drones.
