Our reporters are at the Manghyang Observatory, where North Korea is best seen in Yeonpyeong Island.

The sea you see behind me is the Northern Limit Line, the NLL sea.

North Korean islands can also be seen with the naked eye on the sea.

First of all, the island you can see most clearly now is Seokdo Island in Hwanghae-do, which is only 3km away from where I stand.

Galdo Island and Jangjae Island, the islands behind them, are not clearly visible as sea fog, but as they are less than 10km away, the tension between the two Koreas is directly felt.

YTN reporters visited Yeonpyeong Island in June even when North Korea began provoking filth balloons.

The inter-Korean conflict has deepened more than at the time, and residents' anxiety has increased.

North Korea recently claimed that South Korean drones penetrated Pyongyang and distributed leaflets to the North, and blew up some sections of the East Sea Line and Gyeongui Line connecting the two Koreas on the 15th.

In addition, the North Korean People's Army's General Staff has even ordered thermal units near the border to be fully prepared for firing, so the crisis continues.

North Korea has opened the gates installed on the coast of Gaemori and the aquifer, about 15 kilometers away from here.

Due to the sea fog on the sea, it is difficult to check the statement.

As North Korea provoked off the coast of Gaemori during the Yeonpyeong Island shelling 14 years ago, anxiety is spreading further due to the opening of the coastal artillery door.

There are about 2,000 residents living here on Yeonpyeong Island.

Ongjin County manages reservoirs during peacetime, inspects fire and electrical facilities, and provides emergency food.

In addition, we are evacuating the emergency and checking the shelters in Yeonpyeong Island once again.

It plans to establish an emergency contact network with the military and police to evacuate residents immediately in case of an emergency.

So far, I'm YTN's facial expression Woo at the Yeonpyeong Island Manghyang Observatory.
