The two Koreas and the United Nations Command (UNC) at talks on Tuesday agreed on fresh guard duty rules for the newly-demilitarized Joint Security Area (JSA).

The announcement followed a round of trilateral meetings – the third of their kind this year – held between 1000 and 1300 local time at the Freedom House on the southern part of Panmunjom.

In a move which follows the sealing of previously-existing militarized guard posts (GPs) in the JSA, the two sides on Tuesday agreed to begin operations of a South Korean-manned GP on the Northern side and a North Korean-manned GP
