Shutdown of Bio-Chemical Laboratories in U.S. Military Bases Demanded in S. Korea

Pyongyang, December 24 (KCNA) -- The south Korean online newspaper Voice of People carried an editorial titled "Secret promotion of the bio-chemical laboratory at the U.S. military base in Phyongtaek is the worst infringement upon sovereignty."

The editorial disclosed that a bio-chemical laboratory for the "Jupiter Plan" was established at the U.S. military base in Pusan Port in Nov. 2015 and the similar laboratory secretly built at the U.S. military base in Phyongtaek.

Noting that the U.S. military base in Phyongtaek is located near civilian dwellings, it urged showdown of the above-said laboratories.
