‘Dangerous Consequences Ahead….’ North Korea’s WW3 Warning To U.S-South Korea Military Drills

North Korea has issued a stark warning to the United States and South Korea over their upcoming Ulchi Freedom Shield military drills, calling them a “direct provocation” and a serious threat to stability on the Korean Peninsula. Defense Minister No Kwang Choi, in a statement via state-run KCNA, condemned the large-scale exercise — set for August 18–28 — which will involve live field maneuvers, computer simulations, and civil defense training. He warned of “negative consequences” and vowed that Pyongyang would exercise its “sovereign right” to self-defense if provoked. While the Combined Forces Command insists the drills are defensive in nature, half of the planned field exercises have been postponed due to extreme weather and to avoid escalating tensions. This comes as both Koreas recently removed propaganda loudspeakers along the DMZ, hinting at fragile attempts to improve relations despite the looming military standoff. #NorthKorea #USSouthKoreaDrills #UlchiFreedomShield #PyongyangWarning #KoreanPeninsula #MilitaryTensions #KCNA #SouthKorea #USMilitary #Defense #WarGames #KoreanConflict #Geopolitics #DPRK #MilitaryExercise #USNews #SouthKoreaNews #WorldNews #PeaceTalks #MilitaryDrills ~HT.410~GR.124~
