DPRK Denounces Military Exercises of S. Korean Puppet Forces
Pyongyang, August 5 (KCNA) -- The south Korean puppet group is staging frantic anti-submarine exercises in the West Sea of Korea with huge armed forces of the three services of the puppet army and the marine corps and different war equipment such as destroyers, submarines and fighters involved.
A particular mention should be made of the fact that during the period of the exercises that will last from August 5 to 9 the group is set to stage even ground, naval and underwater firing drills targeted against the DPRK in the waters near five islets in the sea where the armed forces of the north and the south are standing in sharp confrontation with each other.
The Secretariat of the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea in its information bulletin No. 962 issued on Thursday branded the exercises as an unpardonable challenge to the dignity and sovereignty of the DPRK and a premeditated military provocation to ignite a war against it. It went on:
What should not be overlooked is that the group is challenging the DPRK while calling for "staging the exercises", defying the DPRK's notification of its resolute stand that it would counter the exercises with powerful physical counterstrike. This is the last-ditch effort of those who are running reckless in the war gamble, unaware of what ensuing destructive end it will meet.
These ceaseless war drills being staged by the group in league with the United States remind one of the eve of the last Korean War when the puppet army committed military provocations in the areas along the 38th parallel almost every day.
The army and people of the DPRK are closely watching the every move of the Lee Myong Bak group of traitors and if the puppet warmongers dare ignite a war they will mercilessly destroy the provokers and their stronghold by mobilizing most powerful war tactics and offensive means beyond imagination.
