North Korea has now threatened Israel also with “punishment a thousand-fold.” This came after Israel’s Defense Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, said “Kim Jong-un is an ally of Assad. From North Korea, through Iran, to Syria and Hezbollah”.
Lieberman said North Korea’s intent was to “undermine global stability. He referred to the leader, Kim Jong-un, as “the madman from North Korea.”
In response, the North Korea Foreign Ministry issued a statement saying “It is the steadfast will and spirit of the service personnel and people of the DPRK to give merciless, thousand-fold punishment to whoever dares hurt the dignity of its supreme leadership.”
