North Korean leader clandestinely visited military unit near the border with South Korea.
The information was released by the Yonhap agency citing South Korean military personnel.
The inspection of the unit, which is only 1 km from the South Korean border, was held in the first half of August. In these days precisely occurred the temporary disappearance of the North Korean leader of the media.
The visit was not covered in the media because her details are not known.
However, the military source of Yonhap has reported that base is surrounded by mountains, which facilitates the carrying out of provocations from there. It is not specified what provocations are involved.
The situation on the Korean peninsula worsened after harsh statements from Washington and Pyongyang. North Korea has vowed to launch missiles at US bases in Guam. In response, US President Donald Trump has stated that if Pyongyang takes steps against Guam, North Korea will see "something never seen before". A few days later the parties decided to soften their statements.
At the same time on Monday (21) US and South Korean military began joint maneuvers, which Pyongyang considers as testing for an armed conflict. This can further aggravate the tension in the peninsula.
