South Korea fires on North Korean boat that crossed sea border: report
2022-03-10
[NY Post] A South Korean naval ship fired warning shots at a North Korean patrol boat that crossed into contested waters west of the Korean Peninsula, according to a report on Tuesday. ​

The patrol boat retreated after the South Korean vessel opened fire, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing Seoul’s military. ​

The South Koreans then seized a second ship with seven North Koreans on board, all but one of whom were wearing military uniforms.

The encounter occurred near the ​western sea boundary known at the Northern Limit Line, an area that has seen a number of clashes over the years.

The South Korean military said the North Koreans had claimed under questioning that they were not intending to defect and their ship had crossed the Northern Limit Line by accident, according to the Journal.
