North Korea calls DMZ mine blast a South Korean fabrication

North Korea has sent a letter to the president of the U.N. Security Council (UNSC) calling last month's land mine blast near the border an incident "fabricated" by South Korea, Pyongyang's state media reported Monday, according to the Korea Times and Yonhap. This comes after South Korea sent its own letter to the UNSC on Oct. 23 urging North Korea to take responsibility for the blast, which injured three South Korean soldiers, and accusing it of violating the Korean War Armistice Agreement. The South Korean military also estimated that North Korea has planted close to one million land mines in the DMZ since 2024, as reported by KBS World. Korean media coverage focuses on the diplomatic exchange, with the UNC deputy commander stressing a "careful and transparent" approach to border incidents, per the Korea Times.
