Ri Il-hwan, Secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, Kim Yo-jong, Minister of the Central Committee, and main commanders of the General Staff of the Korean People's Army accompanied the inspection. According to the report, in response to the enemy's serious provocative behavior that hinders North Korea's exercise of sovereignty within its territory, Park Zhengtian said that if the enemy launches a provocation that actually threatens the personal safety of North Korean soldiers after warning broadcasts and warning shots, "an immediate counterattack must be carried out." Park Zhengtian said that the most important thing is to take proactive measures to ensure the safety of North Korean officers and soldiers, and now it is necessary to adopt "firepower deployment that makes the enemy fearful." Kim Yo Jong said North Korea's "new batch of firepower units have been deployed in combat positions." "The head of state ordered that there should be no hesitation in safeguarding territorial sovereignty and that the borders with hostile countries should be turned into the most permanent boundaries." "The process of making North Korea's historic southern border permanent is unstoppable." (Xinhua News Agency)
