N Korea blows up inter-Korean road, rail lines near border

N Korea blows up inter-Korean road, rail lines near border
SHARE
Tensions escalate as North Korea destroys inter-Korean roads and rail lines, prompting South Korea to fire warning shots. The incident comes amid Pyongyang’s push for a “two-state” system, abandoning its goal of unification. The destruction of the roads and railways connected to the South is seen as a violation of past agreements, with Seoul condemning the action as “highly abnormal.”
In response to the blasts, the South’s military fired warning shots, while the North had been preparing for the detonation by installing landmines and barriers along the border. The South has increased surveillance and readiness following the incident.
The severing of inter-Korean ties follows Kim Jong Un’s declaration of the South as a “primary foe,” redefining it as a hostile enemy state. The two Koreas remain technically at war, with the cross-border roads and railways representing a previous era of reconciliation.
The destruction of the joint liaison office in 2020 and the recent accusations of drone intrusions further strain relations between the two countries. South Korea has filed a lawsuit seeking damages for the demolition of the office, while tensions continue to escalate over alleged drone activities.
Kim Jong Un’s meeting with defence and security officials to discuss responses to the drone intrusion indicates a heightened state of alert in North Korea. The situation remains volatile as both sides navigate the escalating tensions on the Korean peninsula.
