Entering February, spying of the air pirates of the U.S. and puppet ROK against the DPRK have got ever more pronounced.

RC-135U, a U.S. air force reconnaissance plane, after taking off in the Kadena air force base in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, on February 6, flew over the east and west seas of the Korean peninsula for a long time to spy on the strategic depth area of the DPRK. The next day, RC-135W was keen on spying on military installations from the sky above the vicinity near the southern border of the DPRK.

This was joined by the puppet military gangsters that extensively spied on inland areas of the DPRK by mobilizing Global Hawk, a high-altitude reconnaissance drone, and E-737 AWACS, on the plea of coping with any "possibility of provocation" by someone during the lunar New Year’s Day.

What merits special attention is that the espionage by the air pirates has been conducted almost every day since the beginning of the new year and the enemies intentionally revealed their vapour trails to provoke the DPRK.

Such various air reconnaissance assets’ undisguised spying above the Korean peninsula, on which there exists constant possibility of military clashes, constitutes a clear threat to the DPRK and a grave provocation driving the regional situation into an irrevocably catastrophic one.

Moreover, such espionage acts getting more undisguised beyond the wartime level are in concert with the U.S. and puppet forces’ joint or unilateral military exercises which are staged on and around the Korean peninsula almost every day, only to escalate danger.

The reality clearly shows once again who brings the dark clouds of a nuclear war to the Korean peninsula.

We keep an eye on the reckless military moves of the enemies escalating the danger of war and are fully ready for war to strike and annihilate the enemies at any moment if they dare to provoke us.

It is quite obvious what danger will be entailed when the spy planes of enemy states approach the airspace of their rival.

A saying goes that a tiger moth fond of playing with fire is bound to perish in the flames. The air pirates will not escape the fate of such tiger moth.
