The commentary referred to the dangerous development in the Kaesong Industrial Zone which is on the verge of shutdown.

The U.S. is rattling the nerve of the north to the extremes by deploying nuclear strategic bombers, nuclear submarines and other nuclear attack means in the sky and seas of south Korea, escalating the tension, the commentary charged.

It expressed concern over the Korean Peninsula turning into a dangerous place where an all-out war may break out.

Defying the unpredictable and acute situation in which a war may break out anytime, the south Korean authorities are concealing the fact and crying out for only countermeasures, not taking steps, the commentary held.

Peace does not come of itself, the commentary said, calling upon people from all walks of life to rise up in the action to remove the dark clouds of a war hanging over the Korean Peninsula.
