The Air Force has no information yet that the Russian Federation used ballistic missiles provided by the DPRK during attacks on Ukraine on December 29 and January 2.
This was stated by the speaker of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Yuriy Ignat on the air of the One News telethon.
— There was a corresponding statement from the United States. Therefore, experts will study the wreckage, and then it will be possible to say whether such a fact exists or not. I can't confirm this yet, — he said in a commentary to Vikna-novin presenter Yana Brenzei.

At the same time, he noted that it is unlikely that it will be more difficult for our air defense to shoot down ballistic missiles from Iran or the DPRK, since these are predominantly still Soviet weapons.

Therefore, it’s hardly worth expecting anything new. From the same Iskander, perhaps, it differs in some way, but not too much, — added the speaker.
Earlier, White House National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby said, citing intelligence data, that the Russian Federation struck Ukraine at least twice with missiles provided to it by North Korea.
At the same time, it is already known that on January 10, the UN Security Council will meet to discuss North Korea’s supply of ballistic missiles to Russia, which are used in the war against Ukraine.
