South Korea Vows Firm Response to North Korean Border Breaches Amid Rising TensionsPreviousNext

South Korea has pledged a firm response to protect its military border following a landmine blast in the Demilitarised Zone that injured South Korean soldiers. The UN Command confirmed the incident violated the armistice. Seoul has demanded North Korea halt fortification near the border amid rising tensions. North Korea denies responsibility for the mine, with Kim Yo Jong announcing plans to activate anti-South Korean propaganda broadcasts along the border, though these have not yet begun.
