The United States committed more than 190 cases of aerial espionage against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) in October, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported Monday.
The KCNA, quoting military, said a U-2 high-altitude strategic reconnaissance plane on Oct. 30, spied on strategic objects of theDPRK for a few hours, flying over Tokjok Islet, Pochon and Sokcho.
Some strategic reconnaissance planes made shuttle flights over the east of Paek'a Islet, Yangpyong and Yangyang on Oct. 13, 14 and 19 to spy into the depth of the DPRK, while a commanding planeflew over the forefront areas of the country, the KCNA said.
"The cases of the aerial espionage by strategic reconnaissance planes, electronic reconnaissance planes and commanding planes numbered 30 or more in October," the KCNA said, citing military sources.
Tactical reconnaissance planes also spied on military objects of the DPRK along the Military Demarcation Line around the clock, KCNA said.
"The United States made 10 more espionage flights in October than in September, coinciding with their massive shipment of aggression forces in and around south Korea," the KCNA said.
"This indicates how recklessly the US is running about to stifle the DPRK by military force," the news agency said.
