SEOUL, Dec. 24 (Yonhap) -- Few signs of unusual military moves have been detected in North Korea so far, officials said Tuesday, amid concern Pyongyang could test-fire an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) as a "Christmas gift" to the United States.
Officials noted, however, that the North could undertake a surprise provocation at any time and that the South's military is maintaining readiness for a worst-case scenario while keeping a close watch over the communist neighbor.
"There have not been specific moves in the North as of now that indicate high-profile military actions," a military officer said. "We have been fully prepared for any incidents, and we always keep in mind a worst-case scenario."
