South Korea Reports North Korea Blew Up Liaison Office as Tensions in Region Mount
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A South Korean news agency is reporting North Korea appears to have
blown up an inter-Korean liaison office. North Korea had threatened to
destroy the office, among other threats to South Korea in recent days.
North Korea warned today it is ready to enter the Demilitarized Zone
between the two Koreas, reportedly partly in response to defectors in
South Korea sending propaganda material to the North.
