against DPRK in June.
Pyongyang, July 1 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists have become more
desperate in their aerial espionage against the DPRK at a time when
multi-faceted dialogue is under way between the north and the south
and inter-Korean exchange and cooperation have become more brisk
than ever before, according to a military source. The cases of
aerial espionage committed by the U.S. imperialists against the
DPRK in June totaled more than 170.
Involved in them were the strategic and tactical reconnaissance
planes with various missions that took off U.S. air force bases in
south Korea and overseas.
U-2s made long shuttle flights in the air above the area south of
the Military Demarcation Line almost every day to spy on the
strategic targets of the DPRK.
RC-135 and EP-3 flew over the East and West seas of Korea for
several days to spy on the targets in the depth of the DPRK and its
costal line and seabed.
E-3 committed aerial espionage against the military targets in the
area along the forefront of the DPRK, while commanding fighters
engaged in different forms of war drills in the sky over Sosan,
Ronsan, Yongdong and other parts of South Chungchong
Province.
Meanwhile, RC-12, RC-7B and other type planes with different
missions committed aerial espionage against the front, inland areas
and areas along the coast of the DPRK.
