The savage war of words between Pyongyang and Washington has rapidly increased in recent weeks, with the despot leader threatening nuclear war if US troops remain in South Korea.
Kim Jong-Un has also ramped up his nuclear weapons program, even detonating a hydrogen bomb earlier this year along with firing several missiles.
But while many see North Korea as the aggressor in the developing conflict, now the hermit kingdom claimed the US failed in an attempt on Kim’s life using biological and chemical weapons.
While the report from KCNA, the nation’s state-sponsored news network, said North Korea remained committed to fighting terrorism, it said “the main reason international terrorism is not yet annihilated” was because of US interference and claimed it foiled a US-backed attempt to depose Kim earlier this year.
The report read: “In May this year, a group of heinous terrorists who infiltrated into our country on the orders of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of the US and the South Korean puppet Intelligence Service with the purpose of carrying out a state-sponsored terrorism against our supreme headquarters using biological and chemical substance were caught and exposed.

“This palpably shows the true nature of the US as the main culprit behind terrorism.”
The KCNA report also said the US “changes its colours” like a “chameleon” to justify overthrowing governments, especially in the Middle East.
And it accused Washington of using counter-terrorism and the war on terror as a pretext to overthrow governments it deems hostile, including invasions of Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya.
North Korean state media also cited the latter two as examples of governments that cancelled their nuclear programs only to be later attacked by the US at a later date regardless.
Pyongyang had previously claimed in an official report that “The US has fully revealed its criminal scenario to make no scruple of using biochemical weapons” to destroy North Korea.
And they say it will not give up on its nuclear deterrence unless Washington ends its hostile policy towards the rogue nation.
The revelation comes as a new report revealed the shocking scale of devastation Pyongyang could wreak on its nearest neighbours, with apocalyptic levels of destruction to be expected if a nuclear strike is launched.
The Seoul metropolitan region in South Korea has a population of 24.1 million while Tokyo in Japan is home to 37.9 million people.
And North Korea could instantly kill four million people in just minutes if tyrant Kim Jong-un decides to launch a nuclear strike on Japan and South Korea, according to 38 North.
