More than 170 Cases of U.S. Aerial Espionage

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, September 30 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists' aerial espionage on the DPRK by all sorts of strategic and tactical reconnaissance planes numbered more than 170 in September, according to military sources. The number of aerial espionage by "U-2" high-altitude strategic reconnaissance plane reached nearly 30.
    On September 29 the plane made a shuttle flight in the sky 120 km west of Tokjok Islet and 50 km east of Phochon and Sokcho to spy on strategic objects in the depth of the DPRK.
    The U.S. imperialists intensified aerial espionage on strategic military objects in the depth of the DPRK and the area of our side of the Military Demarcation Line by more than 10 reconnaissance planes of different types including strategic reconnaissance planes "RC-135" and "U-2" on Sept. 16 when the 4th round of the six-party talks was being held in earnest.
    The U.S., which made commitments to the international community that it has no will to attack or invade the DPRK, is still hell-bent on the aerial espionage aiming to mount a preemptive attack on the DPRK. The reality shows that the U. S. imperialists are impelling us to strengthen our self-reliant war deterrent force.
