North Korea says recent South Korean military drills are grave provocation that demands a reaction - KCNA

North Korea lashed out at South Korea over recent military drills while Kim Jong Un sent a personal message to China's Xi Jinping to congratulate him over that country's success in controlling the coronavirus, state media KCNA reported on Friday.

A North Korean military spokesperson on Friday said recent South Korean military drills are a grave provocation that demands a reaction in KCNA.

"Such reckless move of the military warmongers of the south side is the height of the military confrontation which would leave tongue-tied even their master," said KCNA.
