JAKARTA - North Korea on Thursday revealed debris that appears to be a US fighter jet involved in the 1950-1953 Korean War, ahead of the country's 72nd anniversary of the ceasefire.
Rodong Sinmun, North Korea's most widely read newspaper, reported the "the rubble of the enemy's place" attracted the attention of visitors after being exhibited back in the weapons hall which was seized at the Indonesian Liberation War Victory Museum in Pyongyang.
Images and descriptions published by the newspaper show the debris is a US fighter jet fighting in the Korean War, quoted from The Korea Times July 17.
Rodong Sinmun said the debris was taken from the Yellow Sea last year, and the images showed uniformed students observing the heavily damaged debris on display.
The newspaper described the debris as "an enemy aircraft shot down by the armed forces force of the people after circling our holy airspace since it was deployed in the Korean War in July 1950."
The newspaper also issued a warning to "the derivatives of the US colonialists," urging them not to forget lessons from the 1950s and not to "act rashly."
"There is still a lot of room left in the arms hall that we are fighting over," he said.
