The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported on Saturday that DPRK leader Kim Jong Un has called South Korea an "unchangeable enemy" and condemned attempts by South Korean media to exaggerate the damage caused by flooding in the country over the week.

Earlier this week, Kim visited flood-stricken areas in the border city of Sinuiju and Uiju County in North Pyongan province.

He personally oversaw the rescue and evacuation of residents, directing efforts by rescue teams using helicopters and boats.

Over 4,200 people were rescued, and Kim has ordered that all possible assistance be provided to those affected.

On Friday, Kim reportedly visited the helicopter unit of the Korean People's Army Air Force that conducted the rescue mission to offer his congratulations.

He also expressed deep gratitude to the Navy sharpshooter brigade soldiers, the maritime guard formation, and the General Reconnaissance Bureau.

Kim also criticized South Korea's "rubbish media" for spreading false information about the number of casualties in the affected areas, which they claimed to be over 1,000-1,500, according to the news agency.

The DPRK leader remarked that the "enemy remains unchanged," condemning the "inveterate habits and despicable nature of the ROK scum," KCNA reported.
