A personal diary of a North Korean man killed by Ukrainians in Kursk has been published.

After Ukraine's invasion of the territory of the Russian Federation, particularly in the Kursk region, North Koreans came to aid the Russians. It was previously reported that over 10,000 North Koreans arrived to assist Russia in countering the Ukrainians.

One of the North Koreans was killed while defending the Kursk region, and his diary ended up in the hands of Ukrainian soldiers. The diary was published in the media. Many users were curious about what exactly the North Korean wrote in his personal diary.

It is believed that the pages found by the Ukrainian military are diary entries from a fallen soldier from North Korea named Kyong Hon Jong. He died in the Kursk region. Part of his alleged diary was shared online by the Ukrainians:

Kyong Hon Jong wrote in his diary about life in North Korea, his love for the country's leader, and why he found himself in the war.

“I grew up under the reliable protection of the generous party and received more love than I realized. I did not understand at what cost my happiness was bought,” Kyong wrote.

Speaking about the personality of Kim Jong Un, Kyong praised his leader. The soldier noted that he wanted to protect his Supreme Leader.

“I donned the military uniform of revolution to protect my homeland, which is the source of all my happiness, to protect the Supreme Leader,” the soldier explained.

Kyong also mentioned that he “betrayed his own party” and “committed an unworthy act against the Supreme Leader.” Apparently, he sought to redeem himself by going to war.

“My sins are unforgivable, but the homeland has given me a path to renewal, to a new beginning in life. I will go to the front and will unconditionally obey the orders of the Supreme Leader, even if it costs me my life.”

In his diary, Kyong also wrote about tactics for defense against drones. The North Korean noted that this tactic saved lives while risking their own.

“One soldier distracts the drone, while two others pursue it. When the person luring the drone stops, the drone will also cease to move. At that moment, the shooter will destroy the drone.”

It is worth mentioning that North Korea also plans to continue sending military personnel to participate in the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine in the near future. Currently, North Korea is acting as a reliable partner to Russia in this conflict.
