The South Korean military on Tuesday expressed that it will deliver an “overwhelming response” to North Korean provocations if necessary, Yonhap reported.
This warning came following North Korea’s announcement of new controllable shells and ballistic control systems for its multiple rocket launchers on Monday. Pyongyang conducted a test of the new 240-millimetre calibre shells on Sunday, which was detected in real-time by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS). “Our military maintains a posture that can overwhelmingly respond to North Korea’s artillery provocations, while continuously monitoring its weapons development and enhancing our deterrence and response capabilities,” JCS spokesperson, Lee Sung-jun, was quoted as saying.
