Pyongyang, January 31 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialist aggressor forces committed more than 110 cases of aerial espionage against the DPRK in January by mobilizing strategic and tactical reconnaissance planes with different missions and the south Korean forces perpetrated at least 70 cases of similar aerial espionage during the month, bringing their total number to over 180, said military sources. The U.S. imperialists let two south Korea-based U-2s make simultaneous shuttle flights in the sky above Tokjok Islet and the areas of Phochon and Sokcho to spy on all areas in the depth of the DPRK on Jan. 24 and 26 each.
Four RC-12s made long flights in the air above the areas of Kimpho, Hwachon and Sokcho to spy on the front area of the DPRK on Jan. 16, 23 and 28.
A Japan-based EP-3 flew in the air above Taebu Islet and areas of Chunchon and Yangyang to spy on the coastal and front areas of the DPRK on the nights of the 8th, 12th, 17th and 22nd of January.
The U.S. imperialist aggression troops and the south Korean forces mobilized eight strategic and tactical reconnaissance planes of different types for an intensive observation and espionage against the front area and depth of the DPRK on the 23rd, the 24th and the 25th of January each.
Two or three RC-800s and RF-4Cs of the south Korean forces in coordinated operation with the U.S. forces flew in the air above Phochon, Hwachon, Rinje and Sokcho almost every day during the month to spy on the forefront and the central area of the DPRK.
Such aerial espionage intensified by the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean forces against the backdrop of the U.S. imperialists' round-the-clock espionage against the DPRK by satellites clearly indicates that they are putting more spurs to their preparations for a war of aggression against it in the new year.
