Seoul detains North Korean soldier crossing border
South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff detained a North Korean soldier after he crossed the border in an apparent attempt to defect. It is believed that the soldier crossed through an area filled with dense forests and landmines. Investigations are currently underway to determine the details. Since the beginning of 2024, over 236 North Koreans have defected to the South, with 88% of them being women—a rare occurrence given the heightened border patrols.
