NORTH KOREAN ELECTRIC POWER DAMAGE ASSESS!-'ENT REPORT
This study presents an estimate of bomb damage suffered by
electric power facilities in North Korea based upon analyses
of aerial photography. Important installations not covered in
this report will be subject to supplementary reports that will
be issued as additional photography becomes available.
This report does not necessarily indicate the condition of
the installation at the cessation of hostilities, as some of the
photography was taken as early as The dates of aerial
coverage are presented with the dama7e estimate for each electric
power installation.
