WASINGTON, January 20. /TASS/. The US handed over information allegedly proving arms shipments from North Korea to Russia, US National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby announced at a briefing on Friday.

"As we have stated previously, the arms transfers from the DPRK are in direct violation of United Nations Security Council resolutions. So today, we shared information on these violations with the Security Council's DPRK Sanctions Committee panel of experts. We will continue to raise these violations at the Security Council alongside our allies and partners," Kirby said.

Earlier, Kirby presented some satellite photos that allegedly prove, according to the US, the fact of arms shipment from North Korea to the Wagner PMC.

In December 2022, Kirby claimed that DPRK shipped weapons to the Wagner PMC and plans new shipments. Meanwhile, UN Secretary General spokesman Stephane Dujarric said that the UN does not have information about the alleged arms shipments from DPRK to the PMC.
