SEOUL (AFP):The powerful sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un accused the South of causing a Covid outbreak in the country and warned of 'retaliation', as Pyongyang declared 'victory' over its outbreak, state media said Thursday (Aug 11).

North Korea has previously said that 'alien things' near the border with the South caused the Covid outbreak in the isolated country, a claim that Seoul has rejected.
