South Korea has responded to North Korea after the latter destroyed roads connecting the two countries, further heightening the already growing tensions between the neighbors.

 

Ekwutosblog gathered that according South Korea’s Ministry of Unification, responsible for managing relations between the two nations, condemned the act as “abnormal” and a clear violation of bilateral agreements between the two countries.

The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff revealed that their military fired “in retaliation” near the border after North Korea blew up the roads. Though these routes have not been used for some time, the destruction holds symbolic significance.

“North Korean has detonated parts of the Gyeongui and Donghae roads north of the military demarcation line,,” the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said.

Seoul has not provided further details regarding the warning shots and has not confirmed whether North Korea responded.

Since Kim Jong Un declared South Korea as the “main enemy,” Pyongyang has fortified its border, laying more mines and positioning missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads.

Last week, the North Korean regime announced it would block all roads and railways connecting the two countries after South Korea conducted military exercises with the United States.

  • Passengers on a flight to Los Angeles were treated to a once-in-a-lifetime journey that seemed to travel back in time
  • Their jetliner departed from Hong Kong on January 1, 2025, and crossed the International Date Line after six hours, reversing the calendar by a day
  • Cathay Pacific Flight 880 touched down at LAX on December 31, 2024, at about 8:30 pm, a day before their departure date

In a journey that appeared to defy the laws of time, Cathay Pacific Flight 880 departed from Hong Kong on January 1, 2025 and landed at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on New Year’s Eve 2024.

ABC News reports that the flight took off from Hong Kong International Airport just after midnight on January 1, 2025.

How Cathay Pacific Flight 880 travelled back in time

Traversing the vast Pacific Ocean, the jetliner crossed the International Date Line about halfway through its 12-hour journey.

The crossing reversed the calendar by a day, allowing the plane to arrive in Los Angeles on December 31, 2024.

The flight touched down at LAX shortly before 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, approximately 20 minutes ahead of schedule.

Passengers onboard effectively celebrated New Year’s Day twice, a rare temporal experience made possible by the interplay of time zones and international aviation.

Passengers love trans-Pacific flights to travel “back in time”

Passengers arriving at LAX were greeted with the festive hustle of New Year’s Eve celebrations, providing a unique end to their long-haul flight.

New York Post adds that this time-bending phenomenon is a regular occurrence for eastbound transpacific flights.

Over the years, passengers have been known to book eastbound trans-Pacific flights across New Year’s Eve to experience the holiday twice.

It highlights the fascinating quirks of global timekeeping, where a combination of speed, distance, and the International Date Line can seemingly transport passengers “back in time.”

December was dark month for airline industry

The drama-free Cathay Pacific flight gives a new lease of life to an airline industry that had a difficult ending in 2024.

In one of the worst airline disasters in recent times, nearly all 181 onboard Jeju Air Flight 7C 2216 died after it crashed at Muan International Airport in South Korea.

Only two crew members miraculously survived and were rescued from the Boeing 737-800’s tail section.
