Three Russian border guards were attacked and injured by crew members of a North Korean vessel, Moscow said on Tuesday, claiming that two DPRK ships were poaching in Russia's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).
Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) originally told TASS news agency that one of the North Korean ships with 21 people on board had been seized, though later indicated that both ships had been arrested.
