North Korea recently demolished facilities near major roads connecting it to South Korea, Seoul’s defense ministry confirmed on Monday, while local media reported that the DPRK also installed landmines near three inter-Korean crossings.
The destruction of the facilities near the Gyeongui road on the west and the Donghae road near the east coast follows the collapse of an inter-Korean military deal last year.
