Experts believe that arms shipments from North Korea to Russia may have begun
After Kim Jong-un's latest visit to Russia, the railway traffic between Russia and North Korea has increased significantly. This was reported by Beyond Parallel based on satellite images.

On 5 October, an unprecedented number of freight cars (no less than 73) was recorded at a railway facility in the town of Tumangan, near the border between North Korea and Russia. According to Beyond Parallel analysts, "publicly available satellite images over the past five years shows approximately 20 railcars at this facility."

In addition to boxcars, containers and equipment can be seen at the company's main warehouse. What exactly is being transported remains unclear. However, according to the publication, such containers have not been seen at the Tumangan facility before.

According to experts, the sharp increase in railway traffic may indicate that North Korea has started supplying weapons and ammunition to Russia.
