Humanitarian aid to North Korea is down 99% since 2002.
The UN recorded $361M that year. In 2025: $2.4M.
Since 2020 the border has stayed shut to almost every aid worker.
A kilo of rice in Pyongyang costs 8 times what it did in January 2024.
4,820 won then. 40,800 won now.
The rice did not get dearer. The won did: 8,300 to 69,100 per dollar.
326 of the 357 missiles North Korea has fired since 1984 came under Kim Jong Un.
All 17 years of Kim Jong Il: 16 missiles.
2022: 69 missiles, the most in any year.
Up to 120,000 people are held in North Korea's prison camps.
In 2014 a UN Commission of Inquiry estimated 80,000 to 120,000 people locked up in political prison camps, often whole families, and called what happens inside crimes against humanity.
No newer count since.
@rauchg You come from the open-source world, one would think that you'd care about even the powerless.
Yet I guess you don't care the Palestinians :(
Disappointing.
