Re-education wing of North Korea’s Camp 15 closes, report says

Despite development, report-authors say they cannot confirm Camp 15's closure

Part of a well-known North Korean prison camp used for the "re-education" of detainees has closed, satellite imagery and testimony highlighted in a new report by two American organizations has shown.

A "revolutionizing processing zone" at Camp 15 – in which prisoners were once re-educated to become eligible for potential release – appears to have been completely deconstructed, a report published Friday showed.
