Command of KPA in Southwestern Sector of Front Issues Emergency Special Warning

Pyongyang, May 8 (KCNA) -- The warmongers of the south Korean puppet military have recently reached the height in their provocative hysteria in the hotspot waters of the West Sea of Korea.
    They committed military provocations by infiltrating a total of 17 speedboats of the puppet navy two-three times every day deep into the territorial waters of the DPRK from May 1 to 7. A total of five speedboats of the puppet navy intruded into the territorial waters of the DPRK several times from 06:30 to 13:50 on April 26.
    The intrusions were made under the pretext of "intercepting fishing boats" of a third country but its ulterior purpose was to "defend the northern limit line", the illegal line.
    Such reckless intrusions are escalating in the hotspot waters in the overall southwest sea including Paekryong, Taechong and Yonphyong Islands.
    These naval intrusions timed to coincide with the leaflet scattering operations being conducted openly on the whole front are lashing the service personnel of the Korean People's Army in the southwestern sector of the front into a great fury.
    In view of the prevailing situation, the command of the KPA in the southwestern sector of the front made public the following emergency special warning on Friday upon authorization:
    1. From this moment, it will make a sighting strike without any prior warning at any warship of the south Korean puppet navy intruding into the extension of demarcation line in the hotspot of the West Sea of Korea.
    There is a limit to the patience of the KPA service personnel in the southwestern sector of the front.
    The DPRK had already announced several times that self-defensive military strikes would be made at the provocateurs intruding into the territorial waters of the DPRK even 0. 001mm.
    The KPA service personnel in the southwestern sector of the front do not make an empty talk.
    2. In case the provocateurs challenge the self-defensive sighting strike of the KPA, it will successively deal strong second, third and more retaliatory strikes at them.
    Its successive retaliatory strikes will prove what miserable end the provocateurs would meet.
    This warning is based on the resolute decision to mercilessly punish with arms the provocateurs hell-bent on confrontation with compatriots.
    In case the utmost patience exercised by the KPA service personnel in the southwestern sector of the front turn into resentment of justice and their repeated warnings lead to prompt actions, the south Korean puppet authorities will be held wholly accountable for the ensuing consequences as they orchestrated and incited the provocations. -0-
