S.Korea Security Council Seeks Global Cooperation In Excavation Of Remains In Demilitarized Zone

The National Security Council will look for ways to expand cooperation with other countries on war remains excavation projects in the Demilitarized Zone.

The current administration has been working to retrieve the remains of soldiers killed between 1950 and 53 during the Korean War from Arrowhead Ridge, one of the fiercest battlefields inside the DMZ separating the two Koreas since April 2019.

It was in line with the September 19 military agreement reached between the two Koreas the year before.

But Seoul has had to work alone as the regime has stonewalled calls for cooperation.

Their work at the Arrowhead Ridge came to a conclusion and the military will now move to the nearby White Horse Ridge in the latter half of the year.
