New Delhi. Tensions have continued between North Korea and the United States for some time. So now North Korea is making a big claim. This raises the question of whether a war-like situation could develop between North Korea and the United States.
North Korea claimed that about 800,000 citizens had volunteered for its military to fight the United States.
North Korea’s official Rodong Sinmun reported that nearly 800,000 students and workers alone had expressed their willingness to join the military to stand up to the United States. North Korea launched a Hwasong-17 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) on Thursday in response to ongoing US-South Korea military exercises, CNN reported.
North Korea then claimed that 8 million people in the country wanted to join the North Korean army independently. North Korea has launched an intercontinental ballistic missile, the Hwasong Gun-17, amid a South Korean-US Freedom Shield exercise that it describes as “preparing for a war of aggression.”
Following the missile launch, North Korea confirmed that the main reason for the ballistic missile launch was a “stern warning” to the United States and South Korea against provocative and offensive large-scale military drills.
North Korea has said the ongoing military exercises between the United States and South Korea are an act of provocation against North Korea, according to North Korea’s state news agency KCNA. Both countries have organized large-scale offensive exercises to provoke him.
