Melbourne, Oct 28 : North Korea today threatened to turn South Korea into “debris” unless Seoul stops what it described as a policy of confrontation.

“The puppet authorities had better bear in mind that the advanced preemptive strike of our own style will reduce everything ... to debris, not just setting them on fire,” the North Korea’s military said.

“It will turn out to be a just war... to build an independent reunified state on it,”'' it added.

The North warned that its army would take a resolute practical action if the South continues its “confrontational racket,”'' scattering anti-Pyongyang leaflets and conducting a smear campaign with sheer fabrications.

It said North Korea has a “more powerful and advanced pre-emptive strike of our own style as we have already stated before the world” than that of South Korea.

“The advanced pre-emptive strike of our own style is based on a pre-emptive strike beyond imagination relying on striking means more powerful than a nuclear weapon.” (ANI)
