A North Korea spokesman suggested the country could start shooting down U.S. Air Force spy planes after alleging one “illegally' entered its airspace.
Reps. Jared Moskowitz, D-Fla., and Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., analyze the legislation targeting illicit Iranian oil purchases on ‘Special Report.’
"In particular, a strategic reconnaissance plane of the U.S. Air Force illegally intruded into the inviolable airspace of the DPRK over its East Sea tens of kilometers several times," it added, without elaborating. Kim Yo Jong, who is Kim Jong Un's sister, later accused the U.S. of sending spy planes over the North’s exclusive economic zone, the area within 200 nautical miles of its territory where it controls rights to natural resources.
