North Korea warns of potential nuclear war, blaming rising tensions from US and its allies’ continued military actions. In a statement via KCNA, a top official condemned joint military exercises with South Korea, perceiving them as rehearsals for invasion. These actions, North Korea claims, are pushing the Korean peninsula closer to nuclear conflict.
The warning comes during a period of heightened military activity. North Korea has recently tested multiple missiles, and the US and South Korea have responded with increased drills and naval presence.
Experts worry that a miscalculation could quickly escalate into a devastating conflict. North Korea has stated its intention to meet any perceived threat to its sovereignty with force, including nuclear weapons. This warning signals a significant escalation in rhetoric, raising concerns about regional stability and the potential for a miscalculation that could lead to catastrophic consequences. The international community is urged to seek de-escalation to avoid potential war.
