US-based media outlet specializing in North Korea, NK News suggests that North Korea cleared six areas within the DMZ, possibly to strengthen defensive barriers. Military authorities observed North Korean soldiers building walls, clearing land, and constructing roads within 2 km of the MDL, with activities varying by region. On the 9th, several North Korean soldiers crossed the MDL but retreated after warning shots from South Korean troops. Recently, Kim Jong-un declared South Korea as a hostile nation and ordered the reinforcement of border defenses. Since then, North Korea has laid mines and dismantled parts of the Donghae Line railway. The South Korea military is monitoring whether North Korea intends to build a wall along the entire 248 km MDL or only at specific points.
