According to the leader of the DPRK, there are two main strategic tasks that the army must be able to solve.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un ordered the military to intensify exercises to contain and respond to “real war”. Reuters writes about it.
The Korean Central News Agency reported that during the latest ballistic missile launch, a unit trained for “strike missions” demonstrated its ability to counter real war.
As Kim Jong-un himself stated, fire assault units must be strictly trained to carry out strategic tasks. The first of them is to contain the war, and secondly, if the war does happen, it is to seize the initiative in hostilities.
South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol is reported to have said that Seoul will intensify joint military exercises with the United States to expand its ability to deter nuclear threats from the DPRK.
“We are implementing an overwhelming potential for response and retaliation,” Yun said.
The publication writes that the latest missile launches by North Korea took place against the backdrop of the preparation of Seoul and Washington for a joint military exercise called “Freedom Shield”.
Recall that Kim Jong-un, together with the “heiress” daughter, led and observed the exercises of artillery. Recently, the North Korean leader has made numerous public appearances with his young daughter Kim Joo-ae, who appears to be about 10 years old.
It has also been reported that Kim Jong-un may be building the largest dog meat restaurant in the world. Construction is underway in an exclusive area of Pyongyang on the banks of the Taedong River. The well-known Okru-gwan restaurant serving noodles is also located nearby.
