The North Korean military has publicly declared that it will cut off roads and railroad tracks connected to our side?

[Reporter]
This is the content of the report posted by the North Korean General Staff to the Korean Central News Agency.

Starting today, we have declared that we will completely cut off roads and railroad tracks connected to the South and fortify defensive structures.

In addition, it also disclosed that it sent a telephone notice to the U.S. military to prevent misunderstandings and accidental clashes regarding the fortress construction.

After Kim Jong-un defined inter-Korean relations as "two hostile countries" at the end of last year, satellite images have confirmed some of the demolition of roads and railways, including the Gyeongui and Donghae lines, which have been fully formalized.

North Korea attributed the move to military exercises and the development of U.S. strategic assets in the South.

At the same time, it was packaged as a self-defense measure for the deterrence of war and the security of the republic that our military permanently blocked and blocked the southern border bordering the number one adversary and the immutable main enemy of the Republic of Korea.

In response to North Korea's claim, the South Korean military dismissed it as a desperate measure out of the anxiety of the failed Kim Jong-un regime and stressed that it will overwhelmingly punish not only the origin but also the support and command in the event of a provocation.

Since North Korea has announced that it will revise the constitution, the content was also of interest, but there was a related state media report today, right?

[Reporter]
The Korean Central News Agency reported that the 11th meeting of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly was held at the Mansudae Capitol in Pyongyang for two days from the day before (7th) to revise some of the socialist constitution.

North Korea's Supreme People's Assembly is the organization corresponding to our National Assembly.

The Supreme People's Assembly was expected to amend the constitution in January as Kim Jong-un ordered the removal of expressions related to "unification" and the establishment of new "territorial" provisions.

Today, however, the North Korean media covered the news of the constitutional amendment but made no mention of it.

In addition, Chairman Kim did not attend the meeting.

Related content has been reflected in the constitutional amendment, but it seems that we will have to wait and see if it has not been disclosed.

In addition, the meeting also saw the replacement of the defense minister, which is our defense minister, and Noh Kwang-chul, who signed the agreement at the time of the September 19 inter-Korean military agreement in 2018, was re-appointed.

In the meantime, North Korea revealed that it conducted additional test fire to verify the accuracy of 240mm multiple rocket launchers with induction functions ahead of the actual deployment.
