Balanced News: White House: Russia’s Wagner received arms from North Korea

WASHINGTON — The White House said Thursday that the Wagner Group, a private Russian military company, has taken delivery of an arms shipment from North Korea to help bolster its forces as it fights side-by-side with Russian troops in Ukraine. White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said U.S. intelligence officials determined that North Korea completed an initial arms shipment that included rockets and missiles last month. “But we’re certainly concerned that North Korea is planning to deliver more military equipment.”
