North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Friday oversaw an artillery fire competition between units of the country's Korean People's Army (KPA), state media reported, in what represents the second such contest this month.
Reporting that the men of the KPA's 3rd, 4th, and 8th corps artillery units were "greatly excited" for a chance to show off their combat readiness to the DPRK leader, the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said the exercise represented Kim's "ceaseless guidance for strengthening the combat capability" of the country.
