[Iran Press TV Latest] North Korea is continuing to fire more artillery shells near its disputed sea border with South Korea, hours after the two militaries exchanged fire in the region. The North's military said in a statement on Wednesday that it staged an annual artillery live firing drill close to their disputed maritime border. "Such firing drill by the units of the KPA (North Korean People's Army) will go on in the same waters in the future," the North Korean military said in a statement.
This comes after an earlier artillery drill in the area led to an exchange of fire between the two Koreas. Seoul has condemned the North's actions as "gravely provocative."
The South has warned that it will not hesitate to respond to any future incidents that breaches the truce on the Korean Peninsula.
Seoul also says Pyongyang will be held responsible for "anything that happens from this point on."
