North Korea and South Korea Border
Seoul: South Korea said on Monday that it has received indications that North Korea is preparing to destroy northern sections of inter-Korean roads that are no longer in use. Tension between the two countries has also increased after South Korea claimed to have sent drones to North Korean areas. The action to destroy inter-Korean roads would be in line with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s efforts to cut ties with South Korea and formally declare it his country’s main enemy.
South Korean army is keeping an eye
South Korea’s military said Monday it was monitoring various activities in North Korea that appear to be preparations to destroy roads. Lee Sung Joon, spokesman for South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, said, “They have covered the road and they are working behind this cover.” He said that demolition action could be taken as soon as Monday. . Lee said South Korea’s military believes North Korea may also attempt to launch a space rocket, which is considered a test banned by the United Nations under long-range missile technology.
North Korea accused
This development comes at a time when North Korea has accused South Korea of sending drones into its territory thrice this month. He has threatened that if such an incident happens again, he will take forceful action. North Korea’s Defense Ministry said in a statement on Sunday that the military has issued orders to armed troops and other military units deployed near the border with South Korea to be “fully prepared to fire.” South Korea has warned that it will punish North Korea severely if the safety of its citizens is threatened.
North Korea had said this
Let us tell you that last week, North Korea had said that it would permanently block its border with South Korea and develop defense capabilities on the front line to deal with the ‘provocative actions’ of South Korean and American forces. . (Reuters)
