South Korea’s military confirmed that it fired "warning shots" after a group of North Korean soldiers briefly crossed the border on Tuesday.
The incident, reported by Yonhap news, occurred around 5 p.m. local time (0800 GMT) on the eastern front of the Military Demarcation Line (MDL), which divides the Korean Peninsula.
According to the South Korea Joint Chiefs of Staff, approximately 10 North Korean soldiers crossed south of the MDL before quickly retreating back to the north. The situation was resolved without further escalation, but the incident highlights ongoing tensions along the border between the two countries.
