This captured photo from a children’s program aired on April 3, 2016, by North Korea’s Korean Central TV depicts the clash with the U.S. ship General Sherman back in 1866. The U.S. vessel had arrived at the estuary of the Daedong River in what is now North Korea to trade but clashed with local citizens and was sunk in a counterattack. North Korea watchers say the country’s leaders are raising public hostilities against the U.S. as Washington tightens sanctions against Pyongyang for its nuclear provocations.
