North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has offered his support in a letter to President Xi Jinping over China's efforts to stop the spread of a new strain of coronavirus that has killed 213 Chinese people and infected nearly 10,000.

Kim "conveyed his sincere feelings of wanting to share the suffering and trial of the fraternal Chinese people and to render help even a bit," the North's official Korean Central News Agency said Saturday of Kim's letter to Xi.
