The powerful sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un called South Korea’s recent front-line live-fire drills “suicidal hysteria” as she threatened unspecified military steps yesterday if further provoked.
The warning by Kim Yo-jong came after South Korea resumed firing exercises near its tense land and sea borders with North Korea in the past two weeks. The exercises were the first of their kind since South Korea suspended a 2018 agreement with the North aimed at easing front-line military tensions in June.
