N. Korea calls S. Korea’s border firing reckless provocation – AP / May 28 2017
North Korea on Thursday accused South Korea of firing 450 machine gun rounds at a flock of birds earlier this week, dismissing as a fabrication Seoul’s claim that it had fired warning shots because of an object flying across their border.
The North’s General Staff said the South’s firing is a “reckless military provocation” aimed at promoting hostility toward Pyongyang and maintaining a confrontation on the Korean Peninsula.
It was also a “stopgap measure to check the war-weariness sweeping the puppet army in the face of the rapidly developing nuclear and ballistic rocket technology” of North Korea, the General Staff said in a statement carried by state media. It said North Korea will closely watch how South Korea’s “confrontation hysteria” would develop.
