An anonymous official told Reuters about this. 

“We can confirm that North Korea has completed an initial arms delivery to Wagner, which paid for that equipment. Last month, North Korea delivered infantry rockets and missiles into Russia for use by Wagner,” the official said.

Based on the received intelligence data, the US stated that the amount of weapons supplied by North Korea will not affect the dynamics of hostilities in Ukraine, but “causes concern”.

It is noted that the supply of weapons by the DPRK is a direct violation of the resolution of the UN Security Council, so the US plans to raise this issue at the Security Council.
