North Korea is reinstalling loudspeakers blaring propaganda across the border in its latest step away from inter-Korean peace agreements, prompting the South's military to explore similar moves, a South Korean military source said on Tuesday.
Tension between the two Koreas has risen in recent weeks after the North blew up a joint liaison office on its side of the border, declared an end to dialogue and threatened military action.
North Korea's military was seen putting up loudspeakers near the Demilitarized Zone. Such systems were taken down after the two Koreas signed an accord in 2018 to cease "all hostile acts," the military official said.
