JAKARTA - Kim Jong Un gave orders to the authorities and citizens of North Korea (North Korea) to destroy all cats in the border area. The leader of the totalitarian country is worried that cats can be carriers of the corona virus.

In addition to cats, Kim Jong Un also ordered the extermination of pigeons. The order was issued in Hyesan, Yanggang Province, Sinuju, as well as other areas on the border.

Kim Jong Un's order came after he banned all Chinese medicines from entering major hospitals in the capital Pyongyang. Kim Jong Un has also asked researchers to stop clinical trials of a COVID-19 vaccine from China.

Kim Jong Un wants North Korea to produce vaccines independently. This is a question, considering that China is North Korea's main trading partner.

Kim Jong Un's orders were answered by the North Korean people. They reportedly opened fire on birds flying over the border from China.

The community also shoots at cats, both wild and those that are kept by their employers. On the other hand, many residents make false reports about the death of their cat.

Even so the officers were reported to be on patrol. They carry out inspections of houses and community settlements.

North Korean authorities are said to have also not hesitated to punish families who still keep cats. According to an official in Yanggang Province, there are already families who have been punished for this.

"The family was given a 20-day sentence in isolation for illegally keeping a cat after the government banned it in the border area," the Express quoted Tuesday, June 1.

North Korea has so far claimed zero cases of COVID-19 in the country. However, this claim is doubted by many.
