South Korea fires warning shots at 10 North Korean troops crossing the DMZ

The North Korean soldiers, outfitted with guns and bulletproof vests, returned to the northern side of the border after the warning shots rang out, Seoul said. Violent confrontations and bloodshed have previously broken out at the heavily fortified border, with the last known confrontation occurring last June when Pyongyang troops crossed past the DMZ line three times. The 155-mile DMZ stands as one of the world’s most heavily fortified borders, with an estimated 2 million mines scattered inside and all around the boundary.
