Antiaircraft ball-firing exercise in S. Korea
Pyongyang, March 26 (KCNA) -- The South Korean authorities have been staging an antiaircraft ball-firing exercise on the west cost since the middle of this month, according to a radio report from Seoul.
It was reported that the exercise would continue for nearly a month till April 8.
The ball-firing exercise on the west cost where the South Korean authorities triggered off the exchange of fire in a summer last year proves that they are recklessly rushing headlong toward a new provocation.

Move to intensify tie-up with Japanese aggression forces
Pyongyang, March 26 (KCNA) -- The anti-national "government for the people" is actively cooperating in the efforts to build a "cenotaph" for the dead GIs of the Japanese origin on the bank of the River Rimjin in Phaju near Panmunjom on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Korean War ignited by the U.S., according to a foreign press report.
It was reported that the reactionary organisation "the Japanese-American Reservists' Association for the Korean War" initiated the erection of "cenotaph" for 247 Japanese-American soldiers who died a dog's death in the Korean War.
More truth about GIs' atrocities disclosed
Pyongyang, March 26 (KCNA) -- The investigation committee of the Democratic Front for the Reunification of the Fatherland issued indictment no. 2 yesterday after reinvestigating monstrous mass killings and destruction committed by the U.S. aggressors in the North Korea from early August to the middle of September 1950 after the outbreak of the Korean War.
The committee, which was organized at the outset of the war, has investigated and recorded GIs' massacres for the last 50 years. It issued indictment no. 1 on Feb. 19 disclosing the truth about massacres committed by GIs from June 25 to early August, 1950.
The indictment no. 2 said that the U.S. aggressors murdered over 3,590 peaceable civilians, destroyed or burnt 6,122 dwelling houses and reduced many cultural facilities and peaceful industrial establishments to ashes in the North Korea from early August to the middle of September 1950.
Among the victims to the U.S. air raids were not only doctors and nurses but mothers at childbirth and patients and even nursery children.
The U.S. aggressors also killed many rural women picking edible grass, peaceable civilians at work to rearrange and rehabilitate destroyed streets and houses, farmers on fields, civilians walking on roads and women washing clothes on the riverside.
U.S. aggressors indiscriminately bombed, bombarded and strafed not only defenseless major cities but farm and fishery villages and any dwelling house, totally destroying or burning them.
The indictment cited concrete data to prove that this barbarism resulted in completely destroying 401,498 Phyong (one Phyong equals six feet square) of farmland in South Hamgyong Province and 34,182 Phyong in South Phyongan Province just before harvest.
It continued:
All the facts clearly prove once again that the U.S. aggressors are, indeed, beasts in human skin who are fond of man-hunting and the most shameless warmongers who regard aggression, plunder and destruction as their favorite amusement.
The Korean nation can never forget the U.S. brutes' crimes in drenching the land of Korea with the blood of fellow countrymen, burning and destroying their cradles and wealth and will force them to pay for them a thousand times.
U.S. forces' pullback from S. Korea called for
Pyongyang, March 26 (KCNA)-- Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary assails the U.S. Defense Secretary and the commander of the U.S. forces in South Korea for their shameless outbursts reiterating the "need" for U.S. forces' presence in Asia under the pretext of "threat" from the DPRK.
These outcries made by the U.S. warmongers are nothing but jargons intended to shift the responsibility for the increasing tensions on the Korean peninsula onto the DPRK and tone down the mounting anti-U.S. sentiment in South Korea, the commentary observes, and goes on:
The U.S. forces in South Korea are neither "deterrent force" nor a factor of bringing "peace" or "prosperity" to it. They are the arch harasser of the peace and security on the peninsula and the very source of all sorts of misfortune and sufferings.
During the Cold War era the United States justified its forces' presence in South Korea under the pretext of "threat from the Soviet Union". But now it works hard to justify it under the pretext of non-existent "threat from North Korea."
The United States is well advised to drop its bad habit of slandering others in a bid to conceal its despicable colors and pull its forces out of South Korea at once in keeping with the global trend.
CSGE's new warning
Pyongyang, March 26 (KCNA) -- The Citizens Solidarity for General Election (CSGE) in South Korea warned the ruling and opposition parties that if those politicians and other persons whom it had already termed as unqualified are nominated as candidates in "national constituencies" for "National Assembly election" it would make a separate list of those to be defeated and conduct a campaign for their withdrawal, a Seoul-based radio reported.
The South Korean "National Assembly" consists of two categories of "assemblymen," those from the "regional constituencies" and "national constituencies" according to the undemocratic "election law".
It has been a usual practice in each "election" in South Korea that vicious corrupt and degenerated elements who had stood no chance of election at the "regional constituencies" are nominated as candidates in "national constituencies" to make them "national assemblymen".
The CSGE served this new warning in a bid to prevent those who have already been listed as unqualified for "nomination" from proceeding to the "National Assembly" through the channel of "national constituencies".
