Report: Russian ships transfer fuel to N. Korea

EPA / HOW HWEE YOUNG

Russian ships were reported to have allegedly supplied North Korea with fuel on multiple occasions in previous months, according to the Business Insider. Reports come amid last week's United Nations Security Council sanctions against the government in Pyongyang, which were unanimously approved. Since then, the North Korean government stated that UN decision was an "act of war."

Yesterday, according to media reports, US satellites spotted Chinese vessels selling oil to North Korean ships. Soon after, the United States President Donald Trump expressed his disappointment in Beijing's alleged oil trade with North Korea.
