The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported that Kim Jong Un oversaw exercises at the “training base of the special operation armed force of the Korean People’s Army (KPA)” on Sept. 11. Kim called on the unit to “intensify the drills for real war” and he posed for photos surrounded by muscular shirtless men, watching them conduct strength exercises and separate shooting drills. He ordered the “Ministry of National Defence and the General Staff to pay positive attention to providing conditions for further updating training facilities and putting their operation on a scientific basis in the future.”
