Rodong Sinmun Monday observes this in a bylined article.

It goes on:

The fact that dangerous attack means were involved in the drills constitutes a grave military provocation to the DPRK and a revelation of the open scenario for making a preemptive nuclear attack on it.

Foal Eagle was of very dangerous nature as it was staged against the backdrop of extreme anti-DPRK provocation campaign of the U.S. and the south Korean puppet forces.

At the prodding of the U.S. these forces recklessly cried out for meting out "punishment" and "making strikes at bases of provocation and commanding force".

In another development, the U.S. deployed the Aegis destroyers John S. McCain and Decatur with interceptor missiles targeting the DPRK aboard, and sea-based radar SBX-1 and dispatched nuclear carrier group which it used to hurl into shambles of wars in other countries to the waters off the peninsula.

Foal Eagle staged against the backdrop of the dangerous military moves which can be seen only on the eve of a war clearly suggested its alarming danger.

The U.S. and south Korean warmongers should bear in mind that they will not be able to escape a miserable doom if they ignite a nuclear war against the DPRK in the end.
