North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has convened a consultative meeting on defense and safety, saying he will discuss countermeasures regarding the infiltration of drones in Pyongyang.

North Korean media said Kim expressed a tough stance, but did not elaborate on his remarks.

I'll connect with a reporter and hear more about it. Reporter Lee Jong Won!

Chairman Kim Jong-un held a consultation meeting with military officials?

[Reporter]
Yes, the Korean Central News Agency introduced this morning as a headline that Chairman Kim Jong-un convened a meeting on defense and safety yesterday.

To us, it looks like an organization similar to the NSC, the National Security Council.

The council reported that there was a comprehensive analysis report by the Director of Reconnaissance General and a response military plan by the Chief of General Staff regarding the provocation of sovereignty invasion.

In addition, reports on measures to modernize military technology equipment by the Ministry of National Defense, reports on the production performance of armed equipment by the secretary in charge of military industry, and reports on the state of information operations by the National Security Agency were also made.

After receiving the report, Chairman of the states Affairs Commission Kim said he presented the immediate direction of military activities and revealed important tasks to maintain in the operation of war deterrence and the exercise of self-defense, but did not introduce details.

In addition, the news agency reported that Chairman Kim also expressed a strong political and military position of the party and the republic's government, but did not report in detail about this.

However, given the fact that the report of the response military plan was mentioned, it seems to have been discussed how to respond militarily if the South Korean drones fly again.

In addition, as military technology and armed equipment were reported, it is expected that this incident will have led to the modernization of drones and the development of technology related to the UAV intercept system.

In particular, the comprehensive report made by the Reconnaissance General Director, who oversees the operation against the South, seems to be intended to show that the starting point of the incident is South Korea.

In particular, it is also interpreted as expressing the possibility of strong military provocations, given that Chairman Kim expressed a "critical task" or a "hard position."

Earlier, Kim Yo-jong, Kim's younger brother, made a statement late yesterday afternoon, claiming that he clearly knows that the main culprit of the drone crisis is the South Korean military.

He also mentioned the theory of U.S. responsibility, but did not reveal the specific basis for claiming that it was a drone by the South Korean military.
