💨 Abstract

North Korea destroyed sections of inter-Korean roads and rail lines on Tuesday, prompting South Korea to fire warning shots. This escalation follows North Korea's announcement last week to sever ties and fortify border areas, abandoning its longstanding goal of unification. The incident violates past agreements, South Korea's unification ministry stated, calling it a "highly abnormal" action. South Korea had already increased surveillance and readiness after the incident.
