Pyongyang, August 21 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un , general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, met with the leading commanding officers of the overseas operation unit of the Korean People's Army who returned home to participate in the ceremony of awarding the state commendations of the DPRK at the headquarters building of the Central Committee of the WPK on August 20.

After receiving a detailed report on the military activities of the combat units of our armed forces in the overseas operational area from the commanding officers, the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un highly appreciated their feats of leading the combat units of our armed forces, which participated in the operations to liberate the Kursk Region of the Russian Federation, to victory.

Saying that the country assigned them and their combat units to carry out the most important duty, Kim Jong Un conveyed warm militant encouragement to all the commanding officers and the combatants of the units who participated in the operations for liberating Kursk to display boundless loyalty to the trust of the country with legendary military merits.

At the significant ceremony, Kim Jong Un spoke highly of the KPA's heroic mettle, before saying:

"Ours is a heroic army. It is because our army is made up of the sons whose lives were given by our heroic people and who have been raised by them. Our army has fully demonstrated its unique qualities. Such a result has cemented its appellation and reputation as the most powerful army in the world, giving everyone a clear understanding of it. Our army is now doing what it ought to do and what needs to be done. It will do so in the future, too."

The first ceremony of awarding the state commendations to the generals, officers and soldiers of the KPA who performed immortal feats in the overseas military operations will be held at the headquarters building of the Central Committee of the WPK. -0-
