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

    Pyongyang, April 23 (KCNA) -- The south Korean army fired a gun at the nnorth side's post in the Military Demarcation Line (MDL) on Saturday, according to military sources. At about 7:30 a.m. they fired one shell from their MP post near MDL Marker No. 1272 towards the north side in the eastern sector of the front.
    The shell dropped just near a post of the Korean People's Army, posing a grave threat to the lives of KPA servicemen on a routine guard duty.
    The south Korean military authorities consecutively let warships intrude into the north side's territorial waters in the West Sea of Korea recently before firing the shell in the forefront area.
    Those reckless military provocations cannot be construed otherwise than their deliberate and premeditated moves to strain the situation.
    The south Korean military authorities should not run amuck, pondering over serious consequences to be entailed by such military provocations.
