North Korea has destroyed sections of inter-Korean roads on its side of the heavily fortified border, according to South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff. The roads, once symbols of fragile cooperation between the two Koreas, had for long been left unused.
The walk, confirmed by South Korea on Tuesday, alerts but another step towards severing what little remains of inter-Korean relationships.
South Korea’s defense, while denouncing the death of the streets, has responded by bolstering its threats. The Joint Chiefs stated,” We are strengthening our eagerness to ensure the safety of our country.”
This most recent advancement comes at a time when the two neighbors are at odds with one another, which is made even more so by North Korean claims that South Korea has flown drones over Pyongyang’s investment. Concerns of a broader conflict on the Vietnamese Peninsula have been heightened by these allegations in addition to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un‘s new mandate for “immediate defense action.”
Before, the North accused the South of using robots to cut anti-regime advertising over Pyongyang, prompting Kim to join an incident national security conference.
According to state-run advertising, Kim ordered his military to be on high alert, ready to fire at any international artifacts crossing the border. The South, however, immediately denied the helicopter accusations but afterwards refused to confirm or deny any for operations.
The two Koreas ‘ once-open channels of communication have almost sunk, and relationships are now at their lowest level in decades. North Korea announced its complete severance of the southern border just last week, cutting off both railroads and bridges. The North’s pledge to” robust defence buildings” along the border is seen as a further expansion of its already formidable military presence.
