First Message to North Korea Delivered: "Solely North Korea's Responsibility!"

On the morning of September 30, Lieutenant General Kang Hyun-woo, Chief of the Operations Headquarters at the Joint Chiefs of Staff, held a briefing regarding the "North Korean landmine-planting incident."

This marks the first official message addressed to North Korea.

Denouncing North Korea for laying the mines, Lieutenant General Kang strongly demanded an apology, stating that it was "a clear violation of the Armistice Agreement and undermines the spirit of inter-Korean agreements."

More details are provided in the video.
