North Korea denies South’s claim it was apparently behind DMZ mine blasts
Three South Korean officers were severely injured in Sept. 21 explosion inside Demilitarized Zone
North Korea has denied South Korea's claim that it was behind landmine blasts last week that injured three soldiers. According to the Toronto Sun, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's powerful sister made the denial through state media.
The incident occurred last week, but no further details are available from the reports.
The Korea Times report appears to be unrelated to the North Korea story, instead covering a badminton match at the Asian Games. Other reports also seem unrelated, discussing the US-China summit and a hockey match between Malaysia and South Korea.
