I assume they believe it makes them go faster? I have seen videos where they drop bodies out of a truck, apparently in an attempt to get lighter and therefore faster. It’s not particularly smart, but other people have just offed themselves after seeing a drone nearby. So there is a spectrum of reactions.

Getting thrown out of the car which is about to get blown up is a way to save your skin, but there is not much for oneself to do to make it happen.

While nobody has officially send troops, there are a significant amount of professional soldiers from NATO states in Ukraine. Some of them volunteered sure, but I would assume that there are also special forces there, for let’s say payed time off. This however does not change the original point, that the use of 10000+ NK soldiers changes the dynamic of the war.

True, but if one reads this news favorable it could mean that new weapon shipments could come without restrictions. As in the restrictions for previous deliveries still apply, but with these do whatever.
