Women activists cross DMZ between North, South Korea

WomenCrossDMZ group not allowed to walk across the DMZ, instead taking bus most of the way

An international group of women activists crossed the DMZ between North and South Korea today, in a controversial attempt to kick-start peace talks between the two countries.

The group originally intended to make the crossing on foot at the Panmunjom “Truce Village," but eventually were bussed most of the way to a customs and immigration area at Paju.
