The military of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Sunday vowed to take "resolute military measures" against the exercises to be jointly held by South Korea and the United States, the official KCNA news agency reported.

The exercises are "very dangerous military moves" and a "serious challenge" to the common wish of the whole nation to relax the tension on the Korean Peninsula and open a new phase of peaceful unification and national prosperity, the KCNA reported, citing a statement from the Korean's People Army (KPA).

As South Korea and the United States declare that the exercises are aimed at removing the DPRK's nuclear weapons and missiles and examining the practicability of the "plan on local war" against the DPRK, the DPRK will take resolute military measures to deal with these moves, the statement said.

The DPRK will go on "an all-out offensive" to put an end to "the U.S. military occupation" of South Korea and "the anti-popular ruling system" of South Korea, the statement continued.

The DPRK will also respond to "reckless provocation" with "an all-out war at any time" and counter "the nuclear and missile blackmail" with its "own nuclear deterrent" and "missile striking method," it said.

It is reported that South Korea and the United States will hold joint military exercises from Feb. 28 to March 10.
