North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has called for production of missiles and artillery shells to ramp up so the country can secure ‘overwhelming military power’ and be ready for war, state media KCNA said

Kim gave the order as he visited key munitions factories that produce tactical missiles, missile launch platforms, armoured vehicles and artillery shells on Friday and Saturday., where he ordered mass production of weapons, and came days before South Korea and the U.S. are to begin annual military drills, which Pyongyang sees as a rehearsal for war.
"The qualitative levels of war preparations depend on the development of the munitions industry, and the factory has a tremendous responsibility in accelerating our military's war preparations," he was quoted as saying. There was a "very urgent need" to "exponentially increase" the production of such rockets to strengthen frontline artillery units, he said.
