KPA Navy Sets up Firing Zone on MDL

Pyongyang, December 21

A spokesman for the Navy Command of the Korean People's Army Monday released a statement clarifying the stand of the Korean People's Army to defend by a physical force the extension of the Military Demarcation Line the DPRK set in the waters of the West Sea of Korea.

The statement said:

A dangerous situation still prevails in the waters of the West Sea of Korea due to the deliberate military provocations of the warmongers of the military and conservative forces of south Korea despite our repeated warnings.
The frequent intrusions of the warmongers of the south Korean military into the territorial waters of the north side in the West Sea of Korea have recently developed into adventurous bombardments.
The warmongers of the military and the conservative forces of south Korea are seeking to preserve the illegal "northern limit line" through their premeditated military provocations and going so foolish as to insist that the waters south of it are their territorial waters and make them an established fact.
The Navy Command of the KPA states as follows in order to cope with the grave situation prevailing in the waters of the West Sea of Korea:

1. In order to counter the reckless military provocations of the warmongers of the south Korean military our navy declares the waters on the extension of the Military Demarcation Line in the West Sea under the control of our army as a peacetime naval firing zone of coastal and island artillery units of the KPA.

2. All fishing boats and warships are required to take security measures by themselves in that zone to protect themselves.

3. We re-clarify at home and abroad that there exists no illegal "northern limit line" except the extension of the Military Demarcation Line in the waters of the West Sea of Korea declared by the DPRK.

The West Sea is North Korea's !!!

[yorubablk3]

The west sea is the collective fishing & maritime preserve of the Korean working people.And as such should be a 'zone of peace'.Just say NO to the provocations of USA inspired Korean puppets working to create mischief for the free peoples of the DPRK!
