North Korea has voiced strong criticism against joint military drills conducted by the United States and South Korea, labeling them as a provocation. The state's media outlet, KCNA, announced that the nation will continue to uphold its right to self-defense in response to what it perceives as military threats from these countries.
The drills in question, known as the Ulchi Freedom Shield exercises, were specifically condemned by KCNA in a commentary released on Wednesday.
