Kim Jong Un inspects North Korean artillery unit near disputed border

Kim Jong Un provided field guidance to a North Korean artillery unit, telling soldiers to "do their share" should fighting erupt on the peninsula.


The tour of troops took place on Mahap Island, not far from the South Korean island of Baengnyeong, Yonhap reported.

Pyongyang's state-controlled news agency KCNA stated on Friday, "Comrade Kim Jong Un inspected the Mahap Island military base on the western front and gave shooting orders during training."

The report described a "roar of gunfire" after Kim issued the order and that the shots landed accurately and on target.

"If fighting breaks out, Mahap Island soldiers must firmly do their share," Kim reportedly said.

North Korea state media also said Kim provided "valuable lessons" on fighting preparations, while expressing considerable affection for the troops.
