U.S. bombers fly off North Korea’s east, says Pentagon.
North Korea’s Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho told the United Nations on September 23 that U.S. President Donald Trump would be held totally responsible if innocent Americans are harmed by suicide attacks.
He said Mr. Trump had made our rockets’ visit to the entire U.S. mainland inevitable by calling North Korean leader Kim Jong-un “rocket man”.
“Through such a prolonged and arduous struggle, now we are finally only a few steps away from the final gate of completion of the state nuclear force,” Mr. Ri told the annual gathering of world leaders for the United Nations General Assembly adding that the country’s nuclear force was “a war deterrent” to end U.S. nuclear threat and prevent U.S. invasion
“It is only a forlorn hope to consider any chance that the DPRK (North Korea) would be shaken an inch or change its stance due to the harsher sanctions by the hostile forces,” he said.
Calling Mr. Trump “a mentally deranged person full of megalomania” who is holding “the nuclear button”, the Minister said, “none other than Trump himself is on a suicide mission.”

Meanwhile, U.S. bombers accompanied by fighter jets flew off North Korea’s east on September 23 in a show of force designed to project American military power in the face of Pyongyang's weapons programmes, the Pentagon said.
It was the furthest north of the Demilitarised Zone (DMZ) any U.S. fighter or bomber aircraft have flown off North Korea in this century, Pentagon spokesperson Dana White said.
“This mission is a demonstration of U.S. resolve and a clear message that the President has many military options to defeat any threat,” Ms. White said. "We are prepared to use the full range of military capabilities to defend the U.S. homeland and our allies."
