North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has urged his military to be ready “for real war” as he observed a firing contest of artillery units, Pyongyang state media said on Thursday, July 24th.
Kim’s remarks follow the North’s deployment of troops and weapons to help Russia during its more than three-year-long offensive in Ukraine.
Kim offered Moscow his full support for its war in Ukraine.
He urged the soldiers to be ready “for real war” at “anytime” and to be capable of “destroying the enemy in every battle,” the Korean Central News Agency reported in an English dispatch.
