N. Korea upset by DMZ ‘lights’

NORTH KOREA on Saturday threatened to aim fire at the lighting equipment used by “provocative” American and South Korean troops inside the Demilitarized Zone that divides the two Koreas.

The North’s Korean People’s Army accused U.S. and South Korean soldiers of “deliberate provocations” by aiming their lights at North Korean guard posts at Panmunjom since Friday evening.

The KPA said in a statement that the soldiers’ actions have seriously threatened the safety of North Korean troops and disrupted their normal monitoring activities.
