Unpredictable situation on the Korean peninsula

KCNA confirmed yesterday that North Korea had blown up inter-Korean connecting roads, destroying approximately 60 meters of road and rail links on October 15. Pyongyang asserted that the move was in accordance with its amended constitution, which designates South Korea as a hostile nation.

"These measures were taken due to the serious security situation that is on the brink of unpredictable war, because of political and military provocations from hostile forces," KCNA said in its report yesterday.
