Recent legal revisions have made it difficult to scatter propaganda leaflets into North Korea, effectively ending the era of such campaigns, the unification ministry said. The spokesperson expressed hope that the measures could restore inter-Korean ties and build peace.
South Korea's unification ministry stated it is seeking to repatriate elderly 'unconverted long-term' North Korean prisoners of war but is not considering linking the issue to efforts to release six South Korean detainees in the North. The clarification refutes a report by NK News, emphasizing humanitarian repatriation separately. North Korea has not confirmed the detainees' whereabouts.
