The ballistic missiles that North Korea has sent to Russia and used since December in the Ukraine War, have shown a substantial improvement in terms of precision, according to several high -level Ukrainian sources cited by Reuters. The alarms have been lit in Washington, Seoul and other capitals because, in contrast to the previous attacks in which these projectiles have been used, they have managed to reduce their margin of error and now impact between 50 and 100 meters of their objectives.

This would have confirmed a high position of the Government of Zelenski and an officer of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, who have indicated that over the last weeks he has impacted by Ukraine about twenty missile that of the previous ones.
The Yang UK analyst, from the Asan Institute of Political Studies in Seoul, has warned that the improvement in North Korean technology is a greater risk for South Korea, Japan and the United States. “If North Korea manufactures the missiles and the Russian army communicates the aspects to improve, Pionyang will have more experience to produce increasingly reliable projectiles,” he explained. “This can have a significant impact on the stability of both the region and in that of the world,” says UK, who alerts the risk that North Korea has can sell these improved weapons to failed states or armed groups outside the control governmental, which would increase the global threat.
In recent years, North Korea has decided to step on the accelerator. Pionyang. The North Korean plan has included multiple tests in its territory, but even the Ukraine War, had never tried its performance in a real conflict.
The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, maintaining its usual reserve on the effects of Russian attacks on Ukrainian military objectives, has avoided ruling on this issue. Meanwhile, Russia and North Korea have denied the existence of any kind of agreement on armament supply, although both Kim Jon-un and Putin said after their meeting in September last year to have the intention of strengthening cooperation military between both countries.
