North Korea warns U S on eve of new Korea war scare
North Korea's defense minister Gen Choi Hyum says the dawn incident shows U S aims to spark another war on the Korean peninsula. He accuses U S imperialists of aggressive maneuvers as a U S plane photographed two MIG fighters near the North Korean coast. Russians report no survivors and join a two nation search. American officials say the lost plane remained well outside North Korean territory during its six hour flight from Atsugi. The incident is under UN scrutiny with potential North Korean objections to any Mixed Armistice Commission talks.
