Furious North Korea Threatens “Final Doom” After US Deploys Strategic Bombers

Another day, another jawboning escalation out of North Korea, which on Tuesday accused the US of pushing the Korean peninsula “to the brink of nuclear war” after two strategic U. S. bombers flew training drills with the South Korean and Japanese air forces in another show of strength. As Reuters reports, the two supersonic B-1B Lancer bombers were deployed amid rising tensions over North Korea’s pursuit of its nuclear and missile programs.
North Korea said the bombers conducted “a nuclear bomb dropping drill against major objects” in its territory at a time when Trump and “other U. S. warmongers are crying out for making a preemptive nuclear strike” on the North.
“The reckless military provocation is pushing the situation on the Korean peninsula closer to the brink of nuclear war,” the North’s official KCNA news agency said on Tuesday.
“Any military provocation against the DPRK will precisely mean a total war which will lead to the final doom of the US.”
