Kim Jong-Un Orders Military to Prepare for War
Kim Jong-Un has reportedly instructed his military to prepare for war in a nighttime order, as stated by Reuters. This directive also involves accelerating North Korea's nuclear program in response to what Kim describes as unprecedented measures from the United States.
During a special meeting with the ruling Workers' Party, Kim outlined aggressive tasks for the army, ammunition industry, nuclear weapons, and civil defense sectors to intensify war preparations, according to the state Korean news agency KCNA cited by Reuters.
Kim emphasized that the military situation on the Korean Peninsula has become extreme due to previous confrontations with the United States.
In anticipation of potential weapon tests by Pyongyang, South Korea and Japan have strengthened their political and defense cooperation with the United States. They have activated a system to share real-time data on North Korean missile launches. Additionally, the United States deployed a nuclear-powered submarine to the South Korean port city of Busan in December and conducted training with South Korea and Japan using long-range bombers. North Korea claims to have successfully launched its first military spy satellite and tested the Hwasong-18, its most advanced intercontinental ballistic missile.
Kim Jong-Un has recently amended North Korea's constitution to declare the country as a nuclear power. He warned less than a month ago that an invasion of South Korea is imminent.
Kim has described 2023 as a significant turning point and a year of "eye-opening victories" for Pyongyang. North Korea has also strengthened its ties with Russia under Vladimir Putin's leadership, with Kim indicating that cooperation will be further expanded.
