South Korea calls for apology from North Korea after mine injures three soldiers
Blast during search operation near border fuels political tensions amid attempts to revive diplomatic channels South Korea has demanded an apology from North Korea over a landmine blast that injured three soldiers, saying they were hurt by North Korean mines on the southern side of the border.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center South Korea’s demand for an apology after the mine blast and the injury of three soldiers, with both extracts placing the dispute in the border tensions between the two Koreas. The Guardian US foregrounds the demand itself and says the blast came during a search operation near the border, while France 24 adds that North Korea rejected the accusation and, in its extract, quotes Kim Yo Jong threatening retaliation if there is escalation.
