North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's sister, Kim Yo Jong, has claimed that the country's warplanes repelled a US spy plane that flew over its economic zone and warned of "shocking" consequences if the US continues reconnaissance activities in the area. The comments come after North Korea threatened to shoot down American reconnaissance aircraft and condemned Washington's plans to deploy a nuclear missile submarine near the Korean Peninsula. The US and South Korean militaries have not responded to Kim's comments. North Korea's official news agency also criticized the planned deployment of US nuclear assets to the region, calling it "undisguised nuclear blackmail."
