North Korea’s ruling Workers’ Party commented that their forces are combat-ready to sink a US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier with a single strike. It said that that such a strike will be an actual example to show its military’s force. The commentary was carried on page three of the newspaper, after a two-page feature about leader Kim Jong Un inspecting pig farm.
North Korea also detained a man named Tony Kim, a US citizen who has been in North Korea for a month teaching accounting at the Pyongyang University of Science and Technology according to the institution’s chancellor Chan-Mo Park. Tony was arrested at Pyongyang International Airport on his way out of the country.
North Korea will mark the 85th anniversary of the foundation of its Korean People’s Army on Tuesday, and might test some of its weapons as has been the tradition.
Currently, USS Carl Vinson along with Japanese warships Samidare and Ashigara are spread in the waters around the Korean Peninsula to strike the North if it test any nuclear missiles.
Things are heating up in the Korean Peninsula. What will be Kim Jong Un’s move now!?
