Kim Yo-jong, sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, warned of “unfavorable consequences” if South Korea and the US go ahead with the Iron Mace exercise. She called the joint military drill reckless, amid rising regional security tensions.
Kim Yo-jong has said North Korea is not interested in any proposal from Seoul, rejecting talks with South Korea and criticising President Lee Jae Myung's approach as confrontational and unchanged.
