North Korea stated its intention to launch missile attacks on a US air base in Guam after reports claimed Kim Jong-un had held talks with aides to discuss the ramifications of such an attack.
Donald Trump promised to retaliate with “fire and fury” in a Twitter outburst, as he told the rogue state’s despot leader his forces were “locked and loaded” on North Korea.
The Kim regime called off any attacks, instead choosing to wait on the “foolish Yankee’s” next move before firing their readied missiles, according to state media.
Amid the heightened tensions between Washington and Pyongyang, the US and South Korea have held their annual joint military exercises, something the North has long condemned.
With North Korea insisting the exercises are fuelling the fire, the leader of the US military in South Korea has said his forces are ready to move.
General Vincent Brooks said: “We have the responsibility of providing military options to our national leaders.
“Exercises are a way of making the option is a ready option, a capable option.
“Being in readiness to fight tonight, if we have to, is something we will do.”
