NEW: North Korean ballistic missiles fired by Russia at Ukraine since late December have been much more accurate than missiles launched last year, according to two senior Ukrainian sources.

The sources said the increase in accuracy to within 50-100 metres of the target shows that North Korea is successfully using the battlefield to test its missile technology.

A military source revealed a marked improvement in the accuracy of all of the more than 20 North Korean ballistic missiles that have hit Ukraine in the past few weeks. A second source, a senior government official familiar with the matter, also confirmed the findings.

RSF’s control over Khartoum is increasingly fragile as the SAF advances from multiple directions.

SAF has made significant gains, particularly south and southeast of Khartoum, after taking Jazira State’s capital last month.

RSF’s retreat has accelerated in recent days, with multiple villages falling to SAF control.

SAF is now within 5–6 km of the Soba Bridge, raising speculation that RSF may abandon Khartoum.

RSF has temporarily halted their retreat at Giad Industrial City, potentially preparing for a defensive stand.
