The puppet forces infiltrated 19 fishing boats based in waters off Yonphyong Island deep into the DPRK side across the extension of the Military Demarcation Line.

This has rendered the situation in the hotspot waters in the West Sea of Korea tense again.

The south Korean media report that the advance northward of a group of fishing boats under "allowance by the military" created the "touch-and-go situation" in which those boats could be "seized" by the army of the north or they could be "attacked by its coastal artillery pieces".

The recent case is a product of the sordid intention of the puppet forces to cause a shocking case in the above-said waters, lead the Korean People's Army to just counteraction and then brand it as "threat" and "provocation" as it is just an extension of the reckless provocation by the artillery pieces of the puppet forces against a ferryboat of the Korean People's Army on May 27.

What is different is that the past provocation by artillery pieces was directly committed by the gangsters of the puppet military but this time they used innocent fishermen as a sacrificial offering for confrontation with fellow countrymen in fear of merciless punishment by the Korean People's Army.

The true aim sought by the recent provocation is to render the situation in the waters tense and chill the atmosphere of dialogue for the north-south relations on one hand and to maintain the illegal and gangster-like "northern limit line" at any cost on the other hand.

In order to conceal their crimes the puppet forces are even floating sophism that the fishing boats in waters off Yonphyong Island entered the waters of the north side to capture two Chinese fishing boats which were under illegal operation.

It is a childish farce that can be cooked up only by the south Korean puppet forces to claim that fishing boat seizes fishing boat.

Such act aimed at escalating confrontation with fellow countrymen will only force the provokers to pay a dear price.
