From this Wednesday, the day after North Korea's bombing of the Kaesong Liaison Office, the US Air Force's strategic bombers have been flying near the Korean Peninsula to pressure North Korea. On Wednesday yesterday (17th) and today, four of them had launched and went on an aerial demonstration. Our military is strengthening surveillance because North Korea is likely to launch missiles or make any military provocations on the east coast.

Two Russian Air Force strategic bombers B-52 were spotted training on the northern part of the Japanese archipelago on the Russian Air Force and civil aviation tracking sites today.

It was fueled by a Japanese-American air refueler from Kadena Base, Japan, and for hours spent exploring the sky around the Korean Peninsula.

The B-52, which was mobilized today, is Alaska's U.S. air force and has trained more than 10,000 km of long-range bombing to and from Northeast Asia.

Yesterday, the United States Pacific Air Force revealed that two B-52 strategic bombers from Alaska trained in the southern part of the Japanese archipelago.

US-based Grawler and Japanese Air Self-Defense Forces fighters, which were electronic warfare aircraft capable of paralyzing opponents' radars, also joined.

Apart from the reconnaissance aircraft, four B-52 bombers were airborne demonstrations east of North Korea one day after the North exploded the North-South contact office.

[Shin-Woo Shin/Responsible Analyst, Korea Defense Security Forum: (B-52 bombers) I'm flying around Japan all day, but the gap is quite short. It is seen in advance as a flight training to develop strategic assets on the Korean Peninsula.]

North Korean troops are rarely captured in the Kaesong Industrial Complex and the DMZ.


However, it is the military's judgment that it is not a full-scale move to relocate the Kaesong Industrial Complex or to restore the demolished GP.

The military rather monitors the east coast such as Sinpo, Wonsan, and Geumgangsan.

This is because North Korea's subsequent military actions, such as launching a missile test or exploding a facility, are likely to appear on the east coast in the form of a sexual riot.
