Kim Jong Un blows everything up, South Korea strikes back

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.
