SEOUL - North Korea's foreign ministry on Sunday (May 3) rejected US accusations that Pyongyang poses a cyber threat, calling them a fabrication aimed at justifying Washington's longstanding hostile policy, state media KCNA said.

A foreign ministry spokesperson said the United States was spreading false information about a "non‑existent 'cyber threat'" from North Korea for political purposes, describing the claims as "nothing but an absurd slander to tarnish the image of our country."
