    Satellite imagery shows new North Korea-Russia bridge nearing completion

    North Korea and Russia are rushing to complete a new bridge across the Tumen River border, with satellite imagery showing 80-90% completion ahead of a June 2026 opening. The bridge will significantly increase cross-border capacity compared to the existing 1959 Bridge of Friendship, handling up to 300 vehicles and 2,850 people daily. The rapid construction reflects increased cooperation between Pyongyang and Moscow following Kim Jong Un and Vladimir Putin's 2024 summit agreement.
