It was claimed that in the attack carried out by Ukraine last Wednesday, British-made Storm Shadow missiles killed a Russian general and 500 North Korean soldiers.

It was reported that Russian Major General Valery Solodchuk lost his life in the attack, while 18 officers loyal to Vladimir Putin were killed and 18 others were injured.

According to a report by the U.S.-based Global Defense Corp, 500 North Korean soldiers fighting in the ranks of Russia also lost their lives in the attack. Additionally, it was claimed that one of Kim Jong-un's generals was also injured.

According to reports that have not yet been independently verified, precision-guided missiles struck a Putin command center and an underground military facility in the Kursk region. This is recorded as the first incident where British missiles hit targets deep within Russian territory.

These unverified losses, not yet confirmed by Russian and North Korean officials, may be the reason for Putin's launch of hypersonic missiles at Ukraine's Dnipro region on Thursday.

Earlier in the week, up to 12 Storm Shadow missiles were launched by a Ukrainian aircraft. The British-made Storm Shadow missiles, valued at £800,000, have the capability to evade air defense systems and can reach speeds of 600 miles per hour (approximately 965 kilometers). These missiles can hit their targets with precision using GPS, posing a significant threat to enemies.

A video clip shared online recorded the sound of several missiles flying towards the Kursk region. The regional governor had previously stated that two missiles were shot down but did not specify the type of the missiles.

According to the Ukrainian news site Defense Express, it is claimed that the footage was taken near a Russian underground command center and that North Korean soldiers were likely present in a secret bunker.
