North Korea threatens to restart propaganda loudspeaker broadcasts and deploy additional weapons along the border with South Korea. The warnings come amid heightened tensions after border blasts earlier this month.

South Korea previously blamed North Korea-planted mines for the Sept. 21 explosions and said the blasts injured three South Korean soldiers. South Korea urged North Korea to apologize and remove remaining mines. Across outlets, the main emphasis is on the fact that both sides remain locked in hostility over the incident, with North Korea responding by warning of further military posture changes and renewed psychological operations. While details of the planned steps are limited in the reporting, the shared accounts describe the threats as tied directly to the mine blasts and the ongoing dispute over responsibility and safety at the border.
