After their adventurous large-scale joint exercises, the enemies staged again a joint guided missile firing and aerial bombing drill involving tens of different fighters for two days from August 31 to continue to aggravate the situation and reveal more openly their military confrontation scheme against the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

The recklessness and danger of the confrontation hysteria recently revealed by the US and the gangsters of the “Republic of Korea” are unprecedented in history.

The Central Military Commission of the Workers’ Party of Korea issued an order to conduct a relevant military drill to demonstrate to the full the action will and capability to deter the enemies’ attempts for a war of aggression.

In its written order of drill, the WPK Central Military Commission stressed the importance of the drill and sent militant encouragement to the missile soldiers, affirming that the great power of the DPRK will soon reduce into misgivings the so-called self-pride and feelings of relief about the superiority of the combined air forces which the enemies seek to demonstrate in succession.

A firing drill for simulated tactical nuclear attack was conducted at dawn of September 2 to warn the enemies of the actual nuclear crisis.

A high-spirited strategic cruise missile-armed unit of the Korean People’s Army in the western region of the country conducted the relevant military activities.

Prior to the firing, there was an inspection of the procedures for authenticating the nuclear attack order and the rapid operation normality of the technical and mechanical devices of the launch approval system, and two long-range strategic cruise missiles loaded with mock nuclear warheads were fired in an actual war environment according to rapid approval procedures.

The missile sub-unit involved in the drill fired the long-range strategic cruise missiles towards the West Sea of Korea from the estuary of the Chongchon River. It successfully carried out its nuclear strike mission by making sure that the missiles flew along the pattern-8 flight orbits simulating the distance of 1 500 kilometres for 7 672-7 681 seconds, respectively and their warheads detonated at a preset altitude of 150 metres above the target island.

The WPK Central Military Commission repeatedly stressed the need to take offensive actions for affording the understanding of the DPRK nuclear force’s deterrence, calling on all the service personnel of the nuclear force to maintain high alertness and mobilized posture and make the US and the military gangsters of the “ROK” understand more clearly the situation that has reached a serious threat through the overpowering exercise of the war deterrence.

The DPRK nuclear force will bolster up its responsible combat counteraction posture in every possible way to deter war and safeguard peace and stability.
