A North Korean soldier was taken into custody by the South after he voluntarily crossed the heavily fortified land border separating the two Koreas on Sunday, Seoul's military said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/19/world/north-korean-soldier-crosses-dmz/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #northkorea #southkorea #dmz #defection

I wonder whether the unusually high number of ##casualties in the #NorthKorea contingent on the #Ukraine front is only due to poor training & communication difficulties. Surely #defection must be high on the agenda, a literal #russianroulette for freedom. Having read about the latest 2 prisoners captured, seeing that 1 has expressed the wish to stay in Ukraine would point to a 50% defection rate (note: stay in Ukraine aka Europe, rather than go to #SouthKorea).
