West Coast Exchange, North Korea Watcher Conference, Sept. 2026

The north-south joint liaison office was completely destroyed with a powerful explosion at 14:50 on Tuesday, the Korean Central News Agency reported.

The liaison office, which was built in the Kaesong Industrial Park to facilitate candid discussion between the authorities of the north and the south and fully ensure exchange and cooperation, had been appreciated as the fruit of the historic Panmunjom inter-Korean summit in April 2018, but it was turned into a useless house by the incompetent south Korean authorities.

According to KCNA, the latest punishment measure which the DPRK has taken after cutting off all the communications lines between the north and the south is its primary first-stage action to surely force those who defiled its inviolable supreme dignity and those who have shown no remorse or regret to pay dearly for their crimes.
