Hong Chol, an officer of the Korean People's Army, told KCNA:

We servicepersons are eagerly waiting for an order of attack on the provokers. My unit's operational radius has no limits, and the enemies will find nowhere to elude our deadly strike.

The time of ultimate destruction on the part of the south Korean group of traitors is near at hand.

No force can overpower the DPRK people who have turned out in a sacred war of justice to defend their country.

Im Hun, chairman of the North Hwanghae Provincial People's Committee, said:

The south Korean military warmongers will heavily suffer from an all-people retaliatory war.

If the enemies dare provoke the DPRK again, oblivious of the might of its armed forces, the KPA will make a clean sweep of their ruling organs as well as the U.S. military bases in the Pacific and the related facilities of their allies.
