Russia denies US allegations on N. Korean arms shipments

SANAA, Nov. 09 (YPA) – The Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova denied on Wednesday US allegations that her country had secretly received weapons from North Korea.

During a press conference, Zakharova described the allegations as misleading and the lack of credibility of US officials.

She affirmed that the US officials used the misleading propaganda as a pretext to impose more sanctions against Russia to undermine it.

This came in response to statements by the US National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator, John Kirby, that North Korea provided Russia with artillery shells for use in its military operation in Ukraine.
