SEOUL, Nov. 20 (UPI) -- North Korea could deploy up to 100,000 troops to aid Moscow in its war against Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned, amid reports that the North was also sending additional long-range artillery systems to Russia.

Zelensky made the remark during a brief video address to the European parliament Tuesday at a special session marking the 1,000th day of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, which was launched in February 2022.
