North Korea ends 60 year old armistice

Saying “no one can expect what will happen next” North Korea moved one step closer to what many fear will be military action when the country scrapped the armistice.

The country says the drills the US and South Korea are conducting are nothing more than a way to launch a nuclear war.

The North is also planning and carrying out large scale military maneuvers of their own.

However there are concerns over possible attacks near the border with South Korea.
