North Korea hosts a night parade in honor of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Korean People's Army

In the capital of the DPRK, Pyongyang, solemn events are held in honor of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Korean People's Army (KPA), including a military parade. This is reported by the Yonhap news agency, referring to the South Korean intelligence services.

Before the parade, a festive ceremony began on Kim Il Sung Square in Pyongyang. It opened at 20.30 local time (14.30 Moscow time). Then the actual military parade of the KPA began. News agencies publish only fragmentary information about the event.



Thus, according to the Yonhap agency, more than 22 soldiers of the Korean People's Army are participating in the parade. If so, the parade is the largest in years. It is known that the KPA Air Force aircraft participated in the rehearsals of the parade, they can also carry the DPRK Hwaseong-17 intercontinental ballistic missile, new cruise missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads, a super-large multiple rocket launcher system (MLRS) and "invisible" unmanned aerial vehicles.

For the fifth time since 2020, military parades in the DPRK have been held at night. Local media in this case report on the events the next morning.

The Korean People's Army (KPA) was officially established on February 8, 1948. However, her history the national tradition dates back to the formation of the Anti-Japanese People's Guerrilla Army (ANPA), created on April 25, 1932. The Korean People's Army was to play a key role in providing force for the creation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea - North Korea in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. Today, the KPA has at least 1,3 million military personnel, and millions of North Koreans who have completed military service are in the reserve.

    Well, right from the parade a couple of divisions of military builders, to the Trans-Siberian Railway and to the restoration of Donbass. As an aid in the fight against American colonialism. After all, this is in the interests of Welded Korea. The more NATO loses mercenaries and weapons in Donbas, the easier it will be to reunite South and North Korea into a whole state.

        The sanctions of mattresses, which disrupt normal interstate trade, lead to poverty and hunger. Just guided by the positive experience of strangling the DPRK, mattresses also tried to strangle Russia in the same way, so that the starving people staged a revolution. But unlike the DPRK, Russia has everything to exist independently of others.

      North Korean special forces, large-caliber MLRS, etc. will be much more useful at the front. The North Koreans have not fought for a long time: the practice will not hurt them, but it will come in handy in the confrontation with South Korea. Yes, and ammunition can help.
      As they say: not only the Army Games and Tank Biathlon.
      Happy Anniversary Korean People's Army. soldier

          Dmitry said to the point .. As they say, where he was born and came in handy there .. And not only that some sort of "citizens of the world" run around the countries, without a Motherland, without honor, without conscience ..
          PS And the North Koreans live their lives and protect their country .. And they are trying to impose "crap" on them, constantly threatening, however, like Russia now
          Leave them alone lord .. Take care of Russia better, we are determined to turn the world upside down and lower the Anglo-Saxons, etc. very seriously. Enough already to rob and destroy the countries of the world .. Now everything will be according to other rules!

          Verbalism is absolutely useless. You couldn't even directly answer the question. One empty pathos.
          It is very easy to sing odes to those who did not drive you into poverty and the Middle Ages. The one where everyone is obliged to cry or laugh on command and where it is easy for the whole family to end up in the camps.
          And then it’s very easy for you to throw words in relation to what you yourself and your loved ones have not experienced.

          You can always easily get off with the phrase - I have my own Motherland (at the same time, this did not bother you at all when they sang the odes to Ynu).
          Not thinking about how ordinary people live in North Korea.
          In addition, you are right - you have your own Motherland, therefore you speak it, and not for the Koreans - how and whom to praise them, and whom to scold .... they will decide for themselves when they will be given this right.

              This is a relevant question for you - "under whom" ... the poor great and mighty ... "under whom" !!!. You can't confuse a lover of groveling with anyone. And for me the question is not where and under whom, but only in which country. And it's definitely not a matter of geography. But you, with your "under whom", obviously do not understand this.
              Of course, you amused me about my liberal views. Although ... this is me, taking into account what I imagine, what is the idea of ​​liberalism in your head - certainly not the free will of a person, his choice and rights. There is clearly something quite the opposite.
              In your primitive world, the truth about people is not judged by their actions, but by what nation they are, skin color, orientation, gender, religion, political views, etc.?
              Colleague, believe me, sometimes I even envy people like you - on the one hand, it's easy for you to live - everything is either black or white. They said to bow - you will beat with your forehead, they said to raise it on a pitchfork - no questions asked.
              But at the same time I feel sorry for you, because I’m not sure that this can be called a life that left at least some useful trace behind itself, and a country, a society that you drag into some kind of Middle Ages.

            Je ne comprends pas en quoi la Coree du nord serait "au moyen âge" ?
            Un problemème de traduction peutêtre?
            On peut appliquer beaucoup de qualificatifs à la Corée du Nord mais le terme "moyen âge" ?

            I don't understand what North Korea would be like "in the Middle Ages"?
            Maybe a translation problem?
            Many definitions can be applied to North Korea, but the term "Middle Ages"?

            From your evasive answers. Like neither ME nor Bae ... one thing can be understood that you do not live in Russia. And where you want to live is not clear.

          Everything is exactly the same .. The Anglo-Saxons will hold their teeth together, but they can no longer impose sanctions. There is a mutually beneficial trade exchange and the DPRK is not such a poor country, even just in terms of rare earth natural resources, etc. Hardworking and disciplined people who have achieved a lot .. I won’t be surprised if they soon break into space, etc.

          As if softer, he said that there are simply no words,
          And the people are one, the same, and put half the country into such shit

      As in Russia. But this does not apply to missile weapons. All is well with him.

    There is pride and courage in the country and its leader.

    These are not our disgraceful, sending athletes to international competitions, without our anthem and flag, afraid of shouting from the West.
