Pyongyang, July 14 (KCNA) -- Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, released the following press statement on Sunday afternoon:

Today I was informed that dirty leaflets and things of the ROK scum have been found again in the border area and some deep areas of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Similar information was continuously reported by party organizations, military and social organizations at all levels on Sunday morning.

According to the information, the rubbishes were found in 17 places in Jangphung County of North Hwanghae Province and the area adjacent to it.

Units of the Korean People's Army, the Worker-Peasant Red Guards, public security and state security organs at all levels near the border are now making an all-out search, throwing into fire and disposing of the found rubbishes according to the regulation of dealing with enemy-dropped objects and providing against the possibility to find such things in addition.

Despite the repeated warnings of the DPRK, the ROK scum are not stopping this crude and dirty play.

As already warned, the scum, who are resorting to do this play, will be more strongly criticized by their people.

We have fully introduced our countermeasure in such situation.

The ROK clans will be tired from suffering a bitter embarrassment, and must be ready for paying a very high price for their dirty play. -0-
