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.

Thailand’s Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra is under fire as thousands take to the streets of Bangkok demanding her resignation.
The protests erupted after a leaked call with Cambodia’s Senate President Hun Sen, in which Paetongtarn dismissed a Thai army commander’s criticism of Cambodia amid a deadly border clash. The scandal has shattered her fragile coalition, with the Bhumjaithai Party pulling support and anti-corruption agencies launching probes. The opposition, including monarchist-aligned Yellow Shirts, is rallying in full force, evoking memories of past coups against the Shinawatra family.
Cambodia's Hun Sen, now Senate President, accused Thailand of invading Cambodian territory and warned of escalating tensions. Paetongtarn denies wrongdoing, but with possible suspension by the Constitutional Court looming, her grip on power is rapidly weakening. Protesters claim she compromised national dignity; the court's decision next week could change Thailand's political course.
