North Korea threatens to attack South Korea with concentrated firepower

North Korea has said it is ready to take "extremely tough countermeasures" against the US-South Korea joint military exercises, which are scheduled to take place next month.

"The puppets in South Korea did not conceal the purpose of the exercise to serve the preemptive strike on our nuclear and missile bases, proving the desire of the US and its followers to wage an all-out war against us," the editorial was published today.on the propaganda website DPRK Today.

North Korea claims to have the most powerful nuclear weapons, modern strategic offensive measures and will attack "with converging firepower" on South Korea if there is any sign of provocation.

The US and South Korea plan to hold the Key Resolve and Foal Eagle exercises in March.

North Korea has often responded with a tough tone, threatening nuclear strikes against both the US and South Korea ahead of their annual joint military exercises. Pyongyang views the exercises as an invasion rehearsal, though allies say they are defensive in nature.
