A Kazakhstani worker was wounded on Monday when he stepped on a landmine inside the civilian control line (CCL) between South and North Korea in Yanggu, Gangwon Province.
This mine is not believed to have been North Korean, but a U.S.-planted one dating back to the years not long after the Korean War.
