Und in heute's Back of the Brief, just days after Moscow finally admitted that North Korean troops are fighting alongside Russian forces, that was not a well-kept secret, new intelligence reveals the staggering number of casualties that they've suffered on the front lines in Ukraine. But first, today's PDB Spotlight.

120.561 - 138.851 Mike Baker

As Vladimir Putin continues to drag out his war against Ukraine, leaders in Kyiv continue to bring the fight against Moscow's top brass directly to Russian soil. Ukraine has now officially taken credit for the targeted killing of Russian Lieutenant General Yaroslav Moskalik in a bombing near Moscow.

139.411 - 154.582 Mike Baker

This strike is just the latest demonstration of an increasingly potent weapon in Ukraine's arsenal, a lethal assassination program capable of reaching deep inside Russian territory, sending a message to the Kremlin, of course, that nobody is safe.

155.362 - 178.37 Mike Baker

The Ukrainian Intelligence Service, also known as the SBU, reportedly pulled off the assassination on the 25th of April using a remotely detonated explosive device placed inside a parked Volkswagen in the city of Belashika, situated less than 20 miles outside of the Russian capital. The blast was triggered just as Moskalik was passing by the vehicle, killing him instantly.
