“Very abnormal”: South Korea condemns North Korea for blowing up inter-Korean roads

South Korea's unification ministry denounced North Korea's destruction of inter-Korean roads on Tuesday, labelling the move “very abnormal” and strongly condemning the action. “North Korea is fully responsible for the explosion that cut off the inter-Korean roads and railways,” the ministry's spokesperson Koo Byoung-Sam said at a briefing in Seoul. At around midday on Tuesday, some northern parts of the roads and rail lines connected to the South were blown up, the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said in a message sent to the media. In a video provided by the South Korean military, explosions were seen on roads at the inter-Korean borders, while North Korean soldiers and trucks were seen mobilized to the site. In response, South Korea's military fired warning shots south of the military demarcation line dividing the neighbours, though the explosions had not caused any damage on Seoul's side of the border, according to officials.
