SEOUL — North Korea accused the United States on Monday of violating its airspace by conducting surveillance flights and warned that, while Pyongyang was exercising restraint, such flights may be shot down.
The report also cited the use of US reconnaissance planes and drones and said Washington was escalating tensions by“There is no guarantee that such a shocking accident as the downing of the US Air Force strategic reconnaissance plane will not happen” in waters east of Korea, the spokesperson said. US and South Korean forces have been conducting air and navy drills this year that involved a US aircraft carrier and heavy bombers.
The North’s statement denounced what it called a US move to deploy a strategic nuclear submarine carrying nuclear warheads to the Korean peninsula for the first time since 1981.
