Rumors of War

North Korea says South's propaganda broadcasts push situation to 'brink of war' - Reuters
Reuters reports: "South Korea's loudspeaker broadcasts aimed at North Korea push the rivals to the 'brink of war,' a top North Korean official has told a propaganda rally, in the isolated country's first official response to the sonic barrage across its border. North Korea's fourth nuclear test on Wednesday angered both the United States and China, which was not given prior notice, although the U.S. government and weapons experts doubt the North's claim that the device it set off was a hydrogen bomb. In retaliation for the test, South Korea on Friday unleashed a ear-splitting propaganda barrage over its border with the North. The last time South Korea deployed the loudspeakers, in August 2015, it triggered an exchange of artillery fire."
