Statement of a Spokesman for the General Staff of the Korean People's Army
Around 3:50 a.m. on the 24th, there was the enemy situation that an escort belonging to the Second Fleet of the south Korean puppet navy intruded into the maritime military demarcation line stationed by our army 2.5 to 5 kilometres on the sea 20 kilometres northwest of Paekryong Island under the plea of controlling an unidentified vessel to fire "warning shots".
The General Staff of the Korean People's Army gave an instruction to the coastal defence units on the western front to strictly watch and cope with it and took early countermeasures to drive out the enemy warship by firing 10 shells of multiple launch rocket system around the waters where the enemy situation occurred at 5:15.
Our army fired 10 warning shots in the shooting direction of 270 degrees in the area of Ryongyon County at 5:15 on the 24th.
The General Staff of the KPA seriously warns the enemy once again, who have recently made even the provocation of intruding into the sea in the wake of their shelling and loudspeaker provocations on the ground front.
