It was reported that the warship will stage together with the south Korean puppet navy a drill aimed at increasing the capability for joint operations in the East Sea of Korea on April 17 and 18.

The U.S. and south Korean puppet warmongers are escalating war drills while introducing preemptive nuclear strike means and equipment to the large-scale joint military exercises aimed to "remove" the supreme leadership of the DPRK and "occupy Pyongyang".

The north-targeted nuclear war drills in the sky, on land and in seas of south Korea every day with huge preemptive nuclear strike means involved clearly prove who is the criminal bringing the dark clouds of a nuclear war to hang over the Korean peninsula.
