Kim Jong-Un has used the anniversary of the Korean War to issue a chilling threat to kill all Americans.
The North Korean leader claimed if the superpower waged war on the tiny nation they would “leave no American alive”.
The anniversary is traditionally hailed by the country as a victory over the US and South Korea.
Kim has recently posed for photographs which show him apparently testing new weapons, chatting to fighter pilots or directing strategy.
He said: “Gone forever is the era when the United States blackmailed us with nukes; now the United States is no longer a source of threat and fear for us and we are the very source of fear for it.”
General Pak Yong-sik of the Korean People’s Army added: “The past Korean War brought about the beginning of the downhill turn for the US, but the second Korean war will bring the final ruin to US imperialism.”
The celebrations of the 62nd anniversary included speeches, flag ceremonies and traditional dance performances.
Kim paid his respects by visiting Kumsusan Palace of the Sun where the embalmed bodies of his father Kim Jong-il and state founding grandfather Kim-Il-sung lie in state, according to the Korean Central News Agency.
The secretive leader has reportedly had more than 70 officials killed since he came to power.
His victims are said to include powerful figures he claims showed disrespect, family members he suspected of treachery and experts whose work he was unhappy with.
