The Ukrainian President posted on X: "Ukraine is ready to hand over Kim Jong Un’s soldiers to him if he can organize their exchange for our warriors who are being held captive in Russia."

"For those North Korean soldiers who do not wish to return, there may be other options available. In particular, those who express a desire to bring peace closer by spreading the truth about this war in Korean will be given that opportunity," he said.

Zeleskyy on Saturday revealed the images of the two wounded North Korean soldiers who were captured by Ukrainian troops.

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) was quoted as saying by BBC that one of the two soldiers told officials he thought he was going to Russia for "training", rather than to fight.

One of the soldiers reportedly possessed a  Russian military ID card issued in the name of another person.

No document was recovered from the other person.

The two soldiers are reportedly getting medical attention in Kyiv at present.

They only speak Korean and are being questioned with the assistance of South Korea's National Intelligence Service, SBU was quoted as saying by BBC.
