Lt. Gen. Kang Hyun-woo, director of operations at the Joint Chiefs of Staff, attends a press conference at the defense ministry headquarters in Seoul on Sept. 30, 2026, to urge North Korea to stop its border-hardening activities that violate the armistice agreement and demand Pyongyang apologize and take responsible measures over the recent mine explosion it caused in the border area. The South Korean military has said North Korean land mines were "highly likely" the cause of the Sept. 21 blast inside the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) separating the two Koreas, which left three South Korean service members injured.
