North Korea releases video of soldiers ready for war

North Korea has released a state produced video showing soldiers shooting at American signage.

NKorea says 'at war' with South Korea
Inter-Korea relations have entered a "state of war" says North Korea in a government statement.

North Korea has released a video meant to scare its enemies, showing soldiers firing at targets bearing American signage.

Live drills aired on state television aimed to show the country was ready to fight against South Korea and the United States.

This is not the first time that a video like this is released. In March last year state video showed military troops attacking effergies of then South Korean leader, Lee Myung-bak.

However, the latest videos explicitly show soldiers attacking American targets.
