The defense minister has resigned and the new one is set to take office.

Lee has been silent other than that.

RT @W7VOA: Reporter Jason Strother says he is in bunker on Yeonpyeong but no one told why. #Koreas

Some said they (North Korea) did not get the reaction (from Obama/USA) they hoped for from the new nuke revelations, so they decided to take it up a notch.

How recent is this? Are they in shelters again, or is the the first incident tonight that has already been cleared.

#ROK defense officials say several rounds of artillery fire heard on Yeonpyeong today but no shells hit the already-battered island.

going to be a long couple days . . .

after hearing sounds of “several rounds” of artillery firing, though no shells landed on the island.

... keeping a close watch on the movements of the North’s coastline artillery batteries as they maintain a “ready-to-fire” posture.

Right now a game of Chicken is being played and the firing could start up again (remember the war is not over) and possibly new episodes of M*A*S*H..

North Korea deploys surface-to-air missiles on coast. Will USA allow planes to get shot down to start war?

Well that’s an interesting link...N.Koreans in Russia exiting in mass back to N.Korea. Hummm-mmmm. Makes one wonder what China is up to? Keeping in mind new shots fired today would not happen without Chinas approval. They are really miffed the US S.Korea military manuvers are rolling now...seems their warning was flatly ignored.

#China’s warships near disputed islands, #DPRK puts missiles on launchpads, fires more artillery & #ROK evacuates island.
