Zelenskiy says clashes with N. Korean troops 'open page' to instability

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday that the first battles between the Ukrainian military and North Korean troops 'open a new page in instability in the world' after his defence minister said a 'small engagement' had taken place.

Ukrainian Defence Minister Rustem Umerov confirmed, in an interview with South Korean television, that the first engagement had occurred with North Korean troops, an apparent escalation in a conflict that began when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022.
