A South Korean military official said that North Korea has gathered many military vehicles in the suburbs of the capital Pyongyang and is preparing for a military parade in which up to 20,000 people can participate. There is a view that it will be implemented in line with the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army on the 25th of this month.
A South Korean military official told reporters on the 18th that North Korea has installed many military vehicles and other equipment at Mirim Airport on the outskirts of Pyongyang, where a rehearsal exercise for a military parade will be held. It means that they are gathering together and preparing for the parade in earnest.
It is estimated that up to 20,000 people will participate in the military parade, and training using aircraft at night is also being conducted.
In this regard, South Korean news agency Yonhap News Agency reports that the Mirim Airfield is home to tanks, armored vehicles, and mobile launch pads for missiles.
North Korea is opposed to the joint military exercises of the US and South Korean troops that began in South Korea on the 18th, and a week later this month 25th is the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army. There is a view that a military parade will be held in the square in the center of Pyongyang.
What happened to North Korea, which is accelerating nuclear and missile development since January last year when the SLBM = submarine-launched ballistic missile, which seems to be a new model, was described as "Puksong-5" if a military parade by the regular army was held? It seems that the focus will be on releasing the latest weapons.
