National Intelligence Service Believes Kim Regime Has Resumed Political Purges

Lawmakers quoted officials as saying Kim sent several senior editors of the Rodong Sinmun daily to a reeducatiom camp for failing to celebrate a missile launch on the front page, and executed a senior officer of an anti-aircraft battery in Pyongyang for corruption. [Chosun Ilbo]
