North Korean leader Kim Jong-un vows to care for families of North Korean soldiers who died in Ukraine conflicts.
In a significant diplomatic move, the leaders of North Korea, Russia, and China will gather in Beijing to attend the Victory Day celebrations on September 3. The historic event, marking the 80th anniversary of the victory over Japanese fascism in World War II, will see Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in attendance.
Meanwhile, in a poignant display of solidarity, North Korea has held a ceremony to mourn relatives killed in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. The event, held in Pyongyang on August 29, was documented with a collage of photographs, which were later released by the Korean Central News Agency on August 30.
The photographs, originally written in Korean, were translated into English with the help of generative AI tools and a bilingual reporter. The translated article was then edited by a native English-speaking editor to ensure clarity and accuracy.
This sombre ceremony comes as a stark reminder of the human toll the Russia-Ukraine war has taken, with North Koreans among the many victims. The exact number of casualties is not known, but the event underscores the far-reaching impact of the conflict.
The upcoming diplomatic event in Beijing is expected to be a significant moment in international relations, as the three leaders come together to commemorate a shared victory and potentially discuss ongoing geopolitical issues. The Korean Central News Agency will likely continue to document these events, providing a unique insight into these historic moments.
