North Korea Responds to US’ Threat: We are Prepared for Conflict

1 Min Read

North Korea has told the United Nation that she is combat ready to face off against her archenemy the United State of America after the US ‘flew two Rockwell B-1B Lancer planes’ across South Korea.

Daily Star reports that the North Korean Foreign Minister, Ri Yong Ho told the UN general Assembly that US action could ‘ignite the outbreak of nuclear war’.

The US had launched a theatrical fly-past across South Korea last week after North Korea had carried out its fifth nuclear weapon test.

It was the second time strategic bombers – which are capable of carrying nuclear bombs – were sent to threaten the North’s trigger happy leader, Kim Jong-un reports Daily Star.

The Foreign Affairs ministry claimed one of the Lancers crossed the no man’s land that separate’s North and South Korea–a claim the US denies.

He said the North’s nuclear force would be bolstered further and threatened that the US would face “tremendous consequences beyond imagination”.

Ri warned that the fly past could turn the Korean peninsula into “the world’s most dangerous hotspot which can even ignite the outbreak of a nuclear war”.
