Pyongyang, February 5 (KCNA) -- The military gangsters of the puppet Republic of Korea (ROK) are running amok more franticly in warlike acts. Since the outset of the year, they have staged joint maritime drills and joint air drills with involvement of U.S. strategic assets, including nuclear carrier Carl Vinson and nuclear strategic bomber B-1B, and Japan's Aegis destroyers and fighter jets, causing concerns of the international community. Besides, the puppet military rogues have performed uncountable anti-DPRK war drills by themselves. While, on the heels of Yoon Suk Yeol, the top brass of the puppet military vied with each other in parroting such damned words as "immediately, resolutely and to the end" and "retaliatory punishment" during their visit to frontline units to fuel confrontation hysteria, the war maniacs intensively conducted "New Year shelling drill", artillery fire and motorized troops' maneuvers, maritime firing and tactical maneuvers along the southern boundary line of the DPRK in the first week of January alone. The 32nd infantry division of the puppet army staged a missile strike drill in the west coast and a sudden landing drill in the coastal area by involving thousands of troops and more than 160 pieces of lethal war equipment on Jan. 15-19. To coincide with the start of a provocative "coldest period drill" by the 55th division of the puppet army on Jan. 22, its 7th engineering brigade and metropolitan motorized infantry division staged a winter river-crossing drill and the 1st division of the puppet marines conducted a so-called combined anti-infiltration drill in a row. In addition, the rascals of the 17th division of the puppet army staged a "combat firing drill" aimed to "neutralize" the frontline units of the DPRK and "advance" towards its rear. And they maximized war hysteria by using even high-powered bombs, set to be used in the event of war, trumpeting about "improved retaliatory capacities" on Jan. 31. Against this backdrop, the puppet defense minister didn't hesitate to utter such worst nonsense as "end of regime" and "removal of enemy leadership" just after it was made known to the public that three U.S. aircraft carriers were deployed around the Korean peninsula at the same time. It is clear even to a mere child that such vile words serve as a declaration of war and trigger off a physical clash in the light of two hostile countries at war. We have already warned that the principle of "immediately, resolutely and to the end", talked big by the puppet war maniacs, would end up in "perishing, forced death and termination". The enemies would be well advised to be mindful that their invectives against the dignified DPRK and their war drills whose scales are hitting an all-time high have dangerousness that may bring total ruin to the puppet ROK at stake.
