Kim Jong Un has been urging his military to be increasingly ready - describing leaders of the US, South Korea and Japan as 'gang bosses' who increase the risk of nuclear war in the region.
North Korea has performed a simulated"scorched earth" nuclear strike on targets across South Korea.
The exercise is in response to joint drills that have been held by South Korea, Japan and the US this week - which Pyongyang repeatedly denounces as a rehearsal for war.Kim visits a training centre for soldiers The drill rehearsed repelling a sudden invasion, striking its neighbour with nuclear weapons, then sweeping in to occupy territory.
In the scenario,"simultaneous super-intense strikes" also targeted military command centres, ports, operational airfields and other targets in South Korea. Hours after the US deployed B-1B bombers for allied air drills on Wednesday, North Korea also fired two short-range ballistic missiles into the sea.
