Seoul:
North Korean state media on Wednesday shelp around 1.4 million youthful people including students and youth league officials joined or returned to the army this week.
The youthful people are resettled to fight in a “divine war of demolishing the foe with the arms of the revolution,” the KCNA alert shelp.
North Korea’s claim of having over one million youthful people enenumerateing in the country’s Korean People’s Army in fair two days comes at a time when tensions in the Korean peninsula are running high.
Last year, North Korean media made a analogous claim of its citizens volunteering to join the military to fight aacquirest the United States.
North Korea blew up sections of inter-Korean roads and rail lines on its side of the heavily fortified border between the two Koreas on Tuesday, prompting South Korea’s military to fire cautioning sboilings.
Pyongyang has also accengaged Seoul of sending drones over the North Korean capital and the two Koreas have clashed over balloons of trash floated since May from North Korea. Pyongyang has shelp the begines are a response to balloons sent by anti-regime activists in the South.
“If a war shatters out, the ROK will be wiped off the map. As it wants a war, we are willing to put an end to its existence,” the KCNA alert shelp.
