Tourists in North Korea Unable To Send Postcards Home Due To “Sanctions”

Tourists unable to send cards to European countries in wake of nuclear test

Western tourists in North Korea have been banned from sending postcards home to friends and loved ones, supposedly as a result of "sanctions" passed in recent days and weeks.

In particular, the alleged new "sanctions" make it impossible for European tourists to send postcards home. The development was reported to NK NEWS by two separate tourist groups who were in the country during the nuclear test and its aftermath.
