North Korea warns of nuclear war over US-South Korea joint military drill

North Korea has warned that the largest-ever joint air exercise by the United States and South Korea could trigger a nuclear war any moment.

In its editorial on Sunday, the North's ruling party Rodong newspaper said the exercise is an open and all-out provocation against Pyongyang. The five-day Vigilant Ace drill, involving some two hundred thirty aircraft, begins tomorrow.
