Скачать или смотреть DMZ construction, plans to flood the border and North Korea’s air force showcase

This week, NK News senior analytic correspondent Colin Zwirko joins the podcast to discuss recent developments along the inter-Korean border, as well North Korea’s latest event showcasing new air force weaponry.

He begins by sharing what satellite imagery shows about the DPRK’s construction projects within the heavily fortified Demilitarized Zone, some of which appear to cross the Military Demarcation Line, the actual border between the two Koreas.

The discussion then turns to Kangwon Province, where leader Kim Jong Un appears to be planning to build a new dam that would flood part of the North Korean side of the DMZ. Whether the project is being actively developed is unclear, though it could have serious implications for South Korea.

Lastly, Zwirko gives an overview of the recent 80th anniversary of the regime’s air force celebration, where it showed off a new drone and other military assets that mimic American weaponry.
