The news comes amid heightened tension surrounding isolated North Korea after its Sunday launch of a long-range rocket, which came about a month after it drew international condemnation for conducting its fourth nuclear test. A source familiar with North Korean affairs also told Reuters that Ri had been executed. The source declined to be identified, given the sensitivity of the matter. more: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/northkorea/12149933/North-Korea-executes-army-chief-of-staff.html [/quote]
