SEOUL, March 6 — Ahead of US-South Korean military drills, North Korean TV says the US will be “held accountable for igniting war.”

“We have cutting-edge attack methods to beat up the US mainland at anytime and from anywhere. Also we have diligently developed and deployed Juche (self-reliant) weapons in the era of the Workers’ Party of Korea, which enables us to fire strong artilleries.”

“If a war breaks out on the Korean peninsula, the US will be held accountable for igniting the war by mobilizing their massive strategic means and war hardware here, regardless of who mounted a preemptive attack,” a KRT News reader was reported saying. — Reuters
