North Korea Deploys Self-Propelled Guns Near Border, Raising Tensions

North Korea has been spotted deploying self-propelled guns near the coast and border with South Korea, raising tensions between the two countries. The guns, including 122mm self-propelled howitzers, were placed in locations easily visible to the South Korean military, suggesting a provocative display rather than a tactical move. The deployment comes amidst escalating tensions on the Korean Peninsula, with North Korea displaying its military might to warn the border defense line and reinforce its 'two-state' policy. Experts believe this is a show of force, as North Korea typically conceals its artillery using terrain features to avoid counterattacks.
