North Korea Slams U.S. Strikes on Iran

North Korea has openly condemned the recent U.S. military strikes against Iran's nuclear facilities, declaring them a severe breach of a sovereign nation's security interests, state media reported on Monday.

The North Korean foreign ministry accused the United States and Israel of instigating Middle East tensions through aggressive territorial expansion and provocations. They urged the global community to unequivocally criticize these actions.

Historically aligned, North Korea and Iran have collaborated on missile development. Though concerns linger about North Korea potentially aiding Iran's nuclear ambitions, Pyongyang's focus remains on leveraging its expertise in non-fissile components of weaponry.
