“North Korea bombed parts of the Gyeongui (west) line and the Donghae (east) line, north of the Military Demarcation Line in the afternoon,” said a statement from the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff gathered by the Yonhap news agency. which adds that it has strengthened its vigilance and preparedness.
As mentioned earlier, structural damage represents a loss of 176.8 billion won (120 million euros) of the South Korean taxes invested in it. In response, Seoul opened fire south of the military line, which separates both sides of the Demilitarized Zone.
Both countries are connected by road and rail via the Gyeongui Line, which connects the South Korean border city of Paju with the North Korean Kaesong, and the Donghae Line, along the eastern coast of the peninsula.
This measure comes in full conflict accumulationincluding releasing hundreds of balloons and balloons and debris against their communities. Seoul resumed spreading false information on the border in June for the first time in six years, as well as its fire control near the border, while conducting various joint military exercises with the United States.
North Korean officials have increased their launch of missiles and other weapons, which they say is a warning against any moves by Seoul.
