North-targeted Landing Operation Exercise Slammed

Pyongyang, August 20 (KCNA) -- Some days ago, the "Special Warfare Command" of the puppet ground force of south Korea staged the so-called "naval intrusion exercise" in the waters of the West Sea of Korea. The troops involved were busy with the drill for intruding into the "enemy" area by rubber boats after parachuting on the waters from an altitude of 300 meters under the signboard of improving the high technique of parachuting on the waters and acquiring the capability to overcome coastal obstacles.

Rodong Sinmun Thursday says in a signed commentary: This is a very dangerous war exercise as it is aimed at acquiring the capability for perpetrating the massive intrusion into coastal areas of the DPRK and carrying out the landing operation in "contingency."

It goes on:

What should not be overlooked is that the exercise was staged in the waters of the West Sea where there is the biggest likelihood of military clashes between the north and the south. It goes without saying that the above-said exercise for naval intrusion is adventurous saber rattling for a new war.

Since its coming to power, the group of traitors in south Korea has systematically escalated the confrontation with the DPRK.

The north-targeted war maneuvers being staged by the puppet warmongers are as foolish as an act of a puppy knowing no fear of a tiger.

Should the warmongers dare preempt an attack on the DPRK, persisting in their moves for a war of aggression against it in a bid to realize their foolish ambition, its army built up by Songun will mete out a decisive and merciless punishment to the provocateurs.
