Recent satellite pictures show how Kim Jong Unʼs government made two big trenches that cut thru roads and railways near South Korean border (these changes happened around early october)
North Koreaʼs actions follow its earlier move to destroy northern parts of cross-border paths - a step that marks a real break from past cooperation. The countryʼs military activities got more active lately: they test new weapons make deals with other states and change their border setup
Kim Jong Un keeps working on his countryʼs weapons programs - showing off new missiles and nuclear tech. At the same time North Korea helps Vladimir Putin by sending soldiers and military stuff for the ukraine situation; this partnership makes things even more complex
South Koreaʼs government dont like the northʼs nuclear plans and their new friendship with russia. In response Kim said he wants to stop all talks about working together: hes done with the old idea of making peace between north and south. The trenches are just one more sign that shows how bad things are now between these two countries
