North Korean Landmine Believed to Have Injured Two Soldiers on the South Korean Side of the DMZ

The big question is if this was a recently planted mine by North Korea or one that has been sitting there for many years. It will be interesting to see if we ever get an answer to that question:

An undetonated land mine was spotted at the site of last week’s explosion inside the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), according to military sources Monday, citing initial statements from soldiers involved in the blast.

The statement was obtained as the military is working to determine the exact cause of last Monday’s blast that occurred south of the Military Demarcation Line (MDL) inside the DMZ separating the two Koreas. Two South Korean soldiers were severely wounded, with a third sustaining minor injuries.

The incident, which involved two separate explosions, is suspected of having been triggered by North Korean land mines.
