The total number of killed and wounded North Korean military personnel has reached 4,700, Reuters reports. It is noted that around 600 soldiers did not survive the fighting near Kursk.

"But once real combat began, they quickly realized that wouldn't get them far. They adapted on the fly to operating in small groups, which delivered results," he said.
