North Korea Continues Installing New Fences Along Military Demarcation Line, Orders Immediate Counterattack in Case of Provocation
Published
North Korea has been confirmed to be continuing its work to fortify its southern border around the Military Demarcation Line (MDL). 38 North, a U.S. media outlet specializing in North Korea analysis, has released an analysis stating that North Korea is continuing to install new fences.
According to the report, North Korea has reportedly ordered its forces to counterattack immediately should South Korea provoke it while carrying out this work. The Military Demarcation Line is the military boundary dividing South and North Korea, and as both sides face each other militarily in this area, even small changes draw close attention.
38 North has been analyzing these changes based on various sources, and it considers that the installation of fences is altering the appearance of the border area. However, this report did not disclose detailed information, such as the exact scale of the fences or their installation locations.
This news is important information for understanding the situation around the Military Demarcation Line. So far, the official position of our government has not been confirmed, and the details of the report will require further verification.
