DPRK leader Kim Jong Un reportedly directed his officials to explore means of aiding Palestine amid the ongoing aggression from "Israel".

This information was relayed by South Korean People Power Party (PPP) lawmaker Yoo Sang-bum, as per the Yonhap news agency's report on Wednesday.

According to a report from the National Intelligence Service (NIS), Yoo stated that Kim's objective is to provide comprehensive support to Palestine.

The South Korean lawmaker further alleged that the DPRK seeks to "take advantage of the Israeli-Hamas conflict in multiple ways."

The NIS is reportedly concerned that Pyongyang might potentially provide weapons to resistance groups and other nations, as it has previously allegedly supplied anti-tank weaponry and artillery shells to Hamas and Hezbollah.

According to the intelligence service, Kim Jong Un seems to have come to the conclusion that multiple-launch rocket systems are versatile weapons, and he may view a surprise preemptive strike as strategically significant, potentially impacting the current situation on the Korean Peninsula.

Whether this is true or not, it is unlikely that the DPRK may be the first to initiate confrontations as the nature of its policy is strictly defensive and retaliatory.

Over the years, the country has objected to constant provocations on the part of the US, South Korea, and Japan due to these countries partaking in massive military drills in the demilitarized zone.

As of now, the resistance in Palestine appears to be making considerable strides in its operation. 

Meanwhile, in the attempt to subdue Palestinians to Zionist authority, the Israeli side seems to be sustaining serious losses.

On Tuesday, a spokesperson for the IOF announced that 312 soldiers were dead and that 239 had been captured by the Palestinian Resistance and kept within the Gaza Strip.

Moreover, the spokesperson explained that while the IOF "expanded the ground operation in Gaza" it remained a complex endeavor.

Previously, on October 15, the Israeli Prime Minister’s office announced the death of 1,400 Israelis, noting that the number of those wounded reached 3,500.
