North Korea has blown up sections of an inter-Korean road on its side of the border, leading to increased tensions between the two Koreas. The South Korean military has ramped up surveillance and readiness in response to the explosion. The North accused the South of sending drones over its capital, Pyongyang, which sparked a war of words between the two countries. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un held a meeting with defense and security officials to discuss how to respond to what they called a provocation that violated their sovereignty. The South Korean military has not confirmed whether they were responsible for the alleged drone violation. The situation on the Korean Peninsula remains tense as both sides continue to exchange threats and accusations.
