An impressive display of military might from North Korea as the country stages a massive combined army, navy and airforce military drill.<br/> <br />State television broadcast images of leader Kim Jong-un inspecting the drills, which apparently took place on Wednesday.<br/> <br />Kim reportedly urged officers and solders to always think of the battle field and keep on maximum alert.<br/> <br />He also ordered solders to mercilessly wipe out enemies if they provoked the North.<br/> <br />The reclusive state has repeatedly threatened to launch a 'sacred' war against South Korea over its annual military drills with the United States.<br/> <br />The television broadcast follows Friday's announcement that North Korea will launch a working satellite next month - widely seen as a disguised missile launch.<br/> <br />That news was condemned by the U.S. and others who say it breaches a U.N. resolution banning Pyongyang from ballistic missile launches.<br/> <br />North Korea, which said recently it would suspend long-range missile testing as part of talks with the United States, pledged the launch would not impact neighbouring countries.<br/> <br />Sunita Rappai, Reuters
