North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un Dismisses Top General Amid Rising War Possibility

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has replaced Chief of the General Staff Pak Su Il with General Ri Yong Gil in the face of rising war fears. The decision was issued during a meeting of the Central Military Commission and calls for increased military training and a larger manufacturing of weaponry. According to KCNA, the Korean news agency, Kim outlined actions to take against unknown enemies.

Kim also called for an increase in weapons production capacity, without providing specifics. Kim recently pointed to Seoul and its environs on a map, as seen in recently released photos by KCNA.

The United States has claimed that North Korea supplied Russia with weapons for its invasion of Ukraine, a claim both Russia and North Korea have denied. In light of these events, Kim has ordered military drills using cutting-edge equipment to ensure the service is always ready for battle.

On September 9 North Korea will hold a parade of its militia to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Republic. The paramilitary groups that strengthen the country's armed forces are being highlighted in this march.

The United States and South Korea have scheduled simultaneous military drills for August 21st to the 24th. These exercises are seen as a threat to North Korean security. Kim's recent actions and directives, in light of these developments, are consistent with a leader who is increasingly concerned about regional security and national preparation.
