The White House has confirmed that North Korea has delivered an arms shipment, including rockets and missiles, to Russia's Wagner Group for the war in Ukraine.

White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told this to reporters on Thursday, December 22, according to an Ukrinform correspondent.

He clarified that the shipment was sent to Russia last month.

"We assess that the amount of material delivered to Wagner will not change battlefield dynamics in Ukraine. But we're certainly concerned that North Korea is planning to deliver more military equipment," Kirby said.
