Tensions between North Korea and South Korea recently escalated at the Korean Peaceful Zone. The incident occurred for the third time this month, wherein, soldiers from North Korea briefly crossed into the heavily guarded border where South Korea’s military responded by firing warning shots.
Now let’s Know what exactly happened?
Last Friday, South Korea’s military said it had fired warning shots because North Korean soldiers briefly crossed the line that separates the two countries.
The North Korean soldiers were doing some construction work, but South Korea didn’t say exactly what…
Similar thing also happened on June 9 and June 18, where about 20 to 30 North Korean soldiers crossed the line and then went back after South Korea warned them with loud messages and warning shots.
Well now relations between North and South Korea are very tense.
These things are happening when North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong Un, met with Russian President Vladimir Putin, and they agreed to help each other.
Now, South Korea, which sells a lot of weapons, said it might change a rule that stops it from sending weapons directly to Ukraine.
So this month, North Korean troops are building up their side of the border with more aggression.
So as tensions remain high, this incident reminds us that peace between North and South Korea is delicate and it also highlights how fragile is peace between the two neighbours.
