U.S. commits nearly 200 cases of aerial espionage against DPRK

KCNA

    Pyongyang, July 1 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists committed nearly 200 cases of aerial espionage against the DPRK by mobilizing strategic and tactical reconnaissance planes with different missions in June, according to a military source. At around 7:50 on June 28 U-2 high-altitude strategic reconnaissance plane took off a U.S. air force base in South Korea and made shuttle flights in the sky over the area 120km west of Tokjok islet and in the sky over area 45km east of Phochon and Sokcho for more than 10 hours to spy on strategic targets of the DPRK.
    On June 27 RC-135 strategic reconnaissance plane based in Japan made shuttle flights in the sky over the areas 20km east of Paeka islet and areas 40km east of Yangphyong and Yangyang to spy on targets in the depth of the DPRK. On June 13 EP-3 electronic reconnaissance plane flew over Taebu islet, Hoengsong and Kangrung to spy on coastal areas and seabed of the DPRK.
    The aerial espionage getting more frantic in the wake of the "conclusion" of the Iraqi war of aggression clearly proves that the U.S. imperialists are becoming more undisguised in their moves to make a surprise preemptive attack on the DPRK over its "nuclear issue."
