N. Korea Blows Up Cross Border Roads

North Korea detonated parts of the Gyeongui and Donghae line north of the military demarcation line on Oct 15th.  At around noon Tuesday. The South Korean military did not suffer damage but right after the explosion, it fired several dozen warning shots in response using machine guns and grenade launchers from guard posts toward south of the MDL.

A senior Seoul official said that just before detonation, surveillance assets detected a black Lexus and Kim getting out of the vehicle to inspect related preparations. The official added that his appearance explains the bustling activity of North Korean troops from early in the morning.
