North Korea: Pyongyang stages anti-US rally amid mud-slinging

North Korea organised a huge anti-US rally in Pyongyang at the weekend as the two countries continued slinging mud at each other.

The dynastic regime gathered people in Kim Il Sung Square for speeches attacking the US and President Donald Trump.

Meanwhile US bombers and fighter jets flew off the North Korean coast north of the demilitarised zone in the most provocative action since the last century.

At the UN in New York, North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho said Mr Trump was “on a suicide mission” that made “our rockets’ visit to the entire US mainland inevitable all the more.”

Late on Saturday night Mr Trump responded via Twitter, saying that if Mr Ri “echoes thoughts of Little Rocket Man [Kim Jong Un], they won’t be around much longer.”

Last week Mr Trump threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea — which the US did previously in the early 1950s.
