No link, unless you wanna come watch my tv.

ETA: Ongoing story, still developing. I haven't heard them define the term "heavy weapons". Could mean pistols of surprising weight, or nuclear missiles.

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea and South Korea fired hundreds of artillery shells across their disputed western sea border on Monday, escalating military tensions a day after the North threatened to conduct more nuclear tests.

South Korean officials said the shells fell harmlessly into the waters, from which naval and fishing boats stayed clear. But the exchange was the most serious episode along that border since an artillery duel in 2010.

Earlier Monday, North Korea told the South that it would conduct live-fire drills in seven zones along the maritime border, which hugs the southern coast of North Korea. Then it rolled artillery and multiple-rocket launchers out of shoreline tunnels and fired 500 shells and projectiles from 12:15 to 3:30 p.m.

I dunno. It's live on CNN and I didn't see a thread on the first page, so I figured I'd post it.

I guess it's technically different since it's still happening and whatever happened earlier has developed into new stuff.

Sorry. Maybe this will make up for it?

Wasn't it out in the water somewhere? I saw a blurb about it this morning before work. Apparently NK was doing some sort of naval drills and SK got pissed and started shelling them.

That cartoon promotes violence , right wing terrorism, irresponsible use of a gun and cruelty to animals. I advise you take it down this is 2014 not 1980. Stop being part of the problem
