U.S. Ceaseless Aerial Espionage against DPRK under Fire

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

    Pyongyang, January 31 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists committed more than 190 cases of aerial espionage against the DPRK in January by mobilizing strategic and tactical reconnaissance planes with diverse missions, according to military sources. U-2s from the U.S. airforce base in south Korea made shuttle flights almost everyday in the sky above the areas of Tokjok Islet, Phochon and Sokcho to conduct an electronic reconnaissance of the depth of the DPRK.
    On Jan. 9, 16 and 27, overseas based RC-135s made shuttle flights in the sky above Taebu Islet, Yangphyong and the area 40km east of Kangrung to spy on the important targets of the DPRK.
    On Jan. 19, E-3 spied on the military targets of the north in the forefront area, while commanding the flying corps engaged in war exercises such as a ground-target striking drill and a close air support drill in the sky above the areas of Richon, Kongju, Yongdong, Koesan and Umsong. The above-said aerial espionage intensified from the very beginning of the year clearly shows how frantic the U.S. imperialists have become in the moves to stifle the DPRK by force of arms and, at the same time, goes to prove that the U.S. is a criminal state keen to launch a war of aggression against other countries.
