ADVERTISEMENT North Korea has acknowledged for the first time on Monday that it's deployed troops to fight for Russia in its war against Ukraine. Russia announced all Ukrainian troops had been removed from its Kursk region, which Moscow lost control of last year to a surprise Ukraine incursion. In the fall, Ukraine, the US and South Korea all said that North Korea had deployed 10,000-12,000 of its troops to Russia to fight in Kursk. During the last Israeli-Hezbollah war, Israeli drones and fighter jets frequently hit the southern suburbs. Shots were fired into the air to warn residents to leave the area. Israel sees the area as a militant base and says the group hides weapons there. Sundayβs strike follows two earlier attacks on the southern suburbs of the capital. Hezbollah has warned it would eventually turn to other alternatives if Israel's attacks continue.
