Koreas hoist yellow flags at DMZ guard posts to show they are being dismantled
  • 5 years ago
The two Koreas have raised yellow flags at eleven guard posts each,... along their heavily fortified border,... a first step toward dismantling the posts under a military agreement reached as part of September's Pyeongyang Declaration.
Seoul's defense ministry says the two sides placed four-by-three-meter flags at each of the 22 guard posts on Sunday to mark that the posts are to be removed.
The ministry added the move is aimed at enabling each side to observe progress in dismantlement work,... so it can be carried out in a "transparent manner".
