North Korea replaces senior military officials after botched warship launch
INA-source North Korea replaced senior military officials during a meeting of the Central Military Commission of the ruling Workers' Party of Korea, state-run media reported Friday. The meeting was held Wednesday, chaired by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA). The commission appointed six commanding officers of corps-level units, the director of the Artillery Bureau and the director of the Security Bureau and newly dispatched some political commissars, it said. The latest development comes after a new 5,000-ton North Korean destroyer was damaged last week during its launch ceremony. The accident occurred in Chongjin, a port city on North Korea's northeastern coast, when the warship's stern slid ahead of the bow, causing structural damage and preventing the vessel from fully leaving the shipway. Kim condemned the accident as a 'criminal act' stemming from 'absolute carelessness, irresponsibility and unscientific empiricism' and promised to punish those responsible. Source- Anadolu Ajansı

Leader of the Revolution: Negotiating with America is not a wise, honorable, or intelligent matter. If it threatens our security, we will undoubtedly threaten its security
INA-source Mehr News Agency reported that the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei received a group of commanders and cadres of the Iranian Air Force and Air Defense on Friday. The meeting is currently taking place at the Imam Khomeini Husseiniyah in central Tehran. The reception of the Commander of the Islamic Revolution for the Air Force commanders comes on the eve of the anniversary of the historic pledge of allegiance that took place on February 8, 1979, by the cadres of this force with the founder of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khomeini (may God be pleased with him). the Leader of the Islamic Revolution said in a speech at the meeting: 'Negotiations with America are not reasonable, honorable, or intelligent, and they have no effect on resolving the country's problems. The reason is what we have experienced in the past.' He added: 'In the past years, we negotiated with the United States and several countries for about two years, and the Iranian side smiled at them, shook hands with them, was honest with them, and made generous concessions, and a treaty was reached. However, the Americans did not act according to the treaty, and the person in power tore it up and did not abide by it.' Source- mehrnews
