''North Korea is preparing attacks'', Seoul's spy

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un recently ordered preparations for launching attacks on South Korea, the South's spy agency disclosed Thursday, as worries about the North grow after its recent nuclear test and rocket launch.
North Korea has a history of attacks on South Korea, such as the 2010 shelling on an island that killed four South Koreans and the 1987 bombing of a South Korean passenger plane that killed all 115 people on board. But it is impossible to independently confirm claims about any such attack preparations.
