Pyongyang, August 9 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists committed the military provocation threatening and blackmailing the DPRK after bringing into the sky above south Korea the ill-famed B-1B formation on Tuesday.

On the day the U.S. imperialist warmongers let two nuclear strategic bomber B-1Bs, which they reinforced on Guam, make sorties to the sky above south Korea and conduct the drill of striking strategic installations of the DPRK at the Sangdong firing range, under cover of fighter bombers of the puppet air force.

The severity of the situation lies in that the nuclear strategic bombers made their secret way to the sky above south Korea timed to coincide with the dangerous rhetoric let out by high-ranking officials of the Trump administration by calling for "not ruling out a preventive war", not content with their trumpeting about "military strike" at the DPRK.

This signifies the U.S. imperialist warmongers' vicious moves for a sudden attack on the strategic objects of the DPRK anytime.

At a time when the U.S. imperialist aggression forces' military actions have entered a dangerous phase, their nuclear strategic bombers frequent the sky above the Korean peninsula. This clearly proves that the U.S. imperialists are nuclear war maniacs keen on stifling the DPRK by nukes.

Counting on sudden action, they plan to let their nuclear strategic bombers strike the strategic objects of the DPRK all of a sudden, but they should consider that the anti-air force of the DPRK has been aware of their every movement just like the back of one's hand ever since their takeoff from Guam and is ready to bring them down any moment as it has constantly sighted them.

The U.S. imperialist warmongers' reckless provocation is a last-ditch effort of those unaware of their nearing end, being taken aback by the powerful might of the DPRK which has undergone a rapid development.

The U.S. imperialists have not yet come to their senses even after the publication of the DPRK government statement that flatly rejected the UN Security Council's "sanctions resolution" against the DPRK but are thinking of browbeating the DPRK by introducing ill-famed nuclear strategic bomber formation into the sky above south Korea. This only hardens the will of the army and people of the DPRK to settle accounts with the U.S. imperialists, come what may.

The U.S. imperialists have to clearly understand that both "preemptive attack" and "preventive war" will all end in their final ruin.

The U.S. imperialists' ridiculous bluffing never works on the DPRK.

They had better not provoke the DPRK any more, mindful of its deplorable fate on the verge of ruin. -0-
