  • 6 years ago
South Korea's defense ministry announced Tuesday that the inter-Korean military communication line in the West Sea area has been completely restored.
The line was restored as of Monday,... some 29 months since it was severed in February 2016,... following the shutdown of the inter-Korean Kaesong Industrial Complex.
All functions of the line, including phone and fax functions,.. are working as normal.
The defense ministry said the restoration would contribute to the easing of inter-Korean tensions on the border,... and build trust between South and North.
The two Koreas also plan to reconnect the East Sea communication line,.. destroyed in a wildfire,.. following working-level inter-Korean discussions in the near future.
