In the middle of last month, North Korea, which blew up some of the roads on the north side of the Gyeongui and Donghae lines, has piled up piles of dirt to block tanks on both roads.
The South Korean military revealed how North Korea has been carrying out so-called fortification work. I'll connect you with a reporter to find out about the news.
Reporter Kim Moon-kyung! North Korea was seen installing piles of dirt on the road it blew up?

That's right. The Joint Chiefs of Staff released a photo showing the related figure.
First, the photos released showed that North Korea piled up piles of dirt on the road it blew up.
The height of the dirt pile on the East Sea Line is 5m and the Gyeongui Line is 11m.
The length of this pile of dirt was about 50m long on both sides at the back.
In addition, the length of the East Sea Line's dirt pile is 180m across the road and 160m across the Gyeongui Line.
Also, in front of the piles of dirt on both sides of the road, it was found that concrete was built with a length similar to that of the left and right roads, and a pit to block the tram, or the tram, which is about 5m high and 10m wide.
In addition, an artificial flag was hung on the dirt of the Gyeongui Line to symbolically express the two hostile countries.An official from
said that since North Korea blew up two roads in the middle of last month, 300-400 people have been mobilized every day to build related facilities.
North Korea previously blew up roads along the Gyeongui and East Sea lines on the 15th of last month.
Prior to the bombing, the North Korean General Staff announced that it would completely cut off roads and railroad tracks connected to the Republic of Korea and fortify them with solid defensive structures.
A South Korean military official said, "However, it seems to be a show-off construction rather than a solid construction of the related structure."
At the same time, it was devalued that it appeared to be capable of being torn down or restored to its original state quickly.
So far, I'm Kim Moon-kyung of YTN at the Ministry of National Defense.
