North Korea ‘training infantry to carry nuclear bombs in backpacks’

North Korea has reportedly established an infantry unit whose members are being trained to carry nuclear devices in backpacks and, in the event of war, to infiltrate the South before detonating their weapons,.
Quoting sources within North Korea, Radio Free Asia said the military was calling on each of the nation’s soldiers to become a “nuclear arsenal” in the event of war breaking out in the region.

It is not clear whether the units are suicide squads, similar to the kamikaze units sent to attack Allied warships in the closing days of World War II.
The North Korean military is ramping up the propaganda to its own troops in response to joint military exercises between US and South Korean troops. More than 50,000 South Korea and 25,000 US personnel are taking part in the ongoing Ulchi Freedom Guardian exercises.
The sources reported that North Korean troops are being told that an aircraft carrier “will capsize, even if a nuclear backpack is detonated at a distance”.
During a military parade in October to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of North Korea’s Workers’ Party, units of soldiers wearing backpacks with the black-and-yellow radiation symbol marched through Kim Il-Sung Square.
Troops carrying similar backpacks were also reported during a military parade in 2013, Yonhap News reported.

North Korean state media on Tuesday issued a new warning that the nation “will not show any mercy to aggressors”.
Accusing the US of preparing to carry out a “pre-emptive nuclear attack” on North Korea as the first stage in a campaign to control the Asia-Pacific region, the Rodong Sinmun newspaper said the Ulchi Freedom Guardian exercises are “criminal”.
“The US frequently tried to browbeat the DPRK with the latest huge strategic assets, but it proved futile every time”, it said. “The US would be well advised to come to its senses”.

North Korean vice-premier one of ‘two officials executed with anti-aircraft guns’ after he ‘dozed off in meeting’

Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, ordered the public execution of one of his most senior ministry officials and the banishment of two more bureacrats for re-education, according to South Korea’s Unification Ministry.
South Korean media reports have claimed that Kim Yong-jin, a vice premier in the North Korean cabinet with responsibilty for education affairs, was executed alongside another ministry official with an anti-aircraft gun in July.
The killings are the start of a “new reign of terror” in the aftermath of a series of recent high-profile defections, the reports suggested.
Sources told South Korea’s JoongAng Ilbo newspaper that Kim Yong-jin made the mistake of falling asleep in a meeting with Mr Kim
