Off again: Kim Jong Un Suspends Anti-South Korea Military Plans
[SPUTNIKNEWS] North Korea
...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence.

has suspended anti-South Korea military plans, according to a report by South Korean outlet Yonhap News Agency.

Citing Pyongyang's state-run Korean Central News Agency, Yonhap reported that military actions were paused by Kim during a preliminary meeting of the Central Military Commission.

Kim presided over the meeting via video conference.
