Pah! The old **** had it coming.
North Korea is mobilizing their troops along the DMZ and have their troops along the border in a 'wartime state.'
In an escalation of the tense situation in the region, North and South Korea exchanged fire over their heavily fortified border Thursday, the South Korean Defense Ministry said.
South Korea detected a projectile, assumed to be a small rocket, that was fired toward the western province of Gyeonggi, a Defense Ministry official told CNN.
The South Korean military responded by firing a few dozen shells at the area from which the North Korean projectile was fired, the official said.
The Pentagon is monitoring the escalating tension closely, Cmdr. William Urban, a Defense Department spokesman, told CNN's Brian Todd.
And a U.S. official told CNN's Barbara Starr that the United States believes that North Korea fired a shot at a South Korean loudspeaker, and South Korea responded with 36 artillery shells.
The United States believes North Korea deliberately placed mines in the path of a South Korean patrol in the demilitarized zone straddling the two countries, sparking the exchanges, the official said.
Tensions spiked on the Korean Peninsula after two South Korean soldiers were seriously wounded by landmines on August 4 in the demilitarized zone.
South Korea has accused the North of planting the mines, an allegation that Pyongyang denies.
Seoul vowed a "harsh" response to the landmines and resumed blaring propaganda messages over the border from huge loudspeakers.
The move infuriated North Korea, which called the broadcasting "a direct action of declaring a war." Over the weekend, it threatened to blow up the South Korean speakers and also warned of "indiscriminate strikes."
