Kim Yo-jong, sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, declared on Monday that the border situation with South Korea is highly unstable. She revealed that North Korea is considering restarting loudspeaker broadcasts along the border. Kim's comments followed Pyongyang's repeated denial of responsibility for a landmine explosion in late September that injured two South Korean soldiers.
Seoul had attributed the blast to land mines deliberately planted by North Korea. Kim accused the South Korean military of endangering North Korean soldiers and escalating tensions, describing their actions as going beyond a red line after calling the mine explosion a fabricated farce. She claimed that South Korea conducted two, eight landmine explosions.
