Kim Yo Jong Warns of Military Response to Japan's Tomahawk Missile Test

Kim Yo Jong Warns of Military Response to Japan's Tomahawk Missile TestPreviousNext

North Korea's Kim Yo Jong condemned Japan's recent test of a U.S.-made Tomahawk cruise missile and its broader military expansion, warning Pyongyang may adopt additional military measures in response. The remarks followed Japan's release of its defence white paper, which identified China, Russia, and North Korea as key security threats and outlined plans to strengthen its military. Kim accused Japan of shifting from a defensive posture to one capable of pre-emptive strikes, with U.S. support enabling this build-up.
