North Korea has placed 122mm self-propelled howitzers in an unusually exposed position along the coast of Kepon Province, about 1.5 kilometers from the Agibon Observatory in the South Korean city of Gimpo, with their barrels pointing south. Artillery vehicles were emblazoned with the slogans "Destroy the US imperialist aggressors," and North Korean soldiers were seen performing red flag exercises. Additional armored personnel carriers and fencing works were also seen at the site.
