None
North Korea threatened South Korea with war Sunday after Seoul warned it would launch a pre-emptive strike if the North was preparing a nuclear attack the latest salvo in a battle of rhetoric despite signs of improved cooperation across the militarized frontier.
"Our revolutionary armed forces will regard the scenario for 'pre-emptive strike,' which the South Korean puppet authorities adopted as a 'state policy,' as an open declaration of war," the General Staff of the Korean People's Army said in a statement carried by the country's official Korean Central News Agency.
