South Korea: North Korean land mine blast, killing one.

A North Korean wooden box land mine that may have been washed into South Korea by heavy flooding exploded in an inter-Korean border area, killing one South Korean civilian and injuring another, South Korea’s Joongang reported. The South Korean military said there was a low chance that the North intentionally sent the mines south, but started investigating on possible land mines that may have drifted to southern part of the river.
