Supplement

In June last year, a similar incident occurred on the border between the two Koreas. North Korean soldiers working on the central front of the demarcation zone invaded south of the MDL line, and after a warning from the South Korean military, they turned back.

Against the background of increasing confrontation in the region, North Korea decided to block the border with South Korea and announced its intention to build a new defense line.

To this end, the North Korean armed forces completely blocked roads and railways, and also strengthened the protection of the relevant areas with powerful defensive fortifications.

Recall

Earlier in March, South Korea made a warning shot at a North Korean ship that crossed the sea border amid rising tensions between the countries over North Korea's missile tests.
