North Korea on Wednesday severed a military hotline with South Korea used to ensure the safety of personnel commuting to and from the inter-Korean Kaesong Industrial Complex.
The move came as the South Korean government proposed inviting international investment to the Kaesong complex as part of efforts to build trust with North Korea.
The North's official KCNA news agency said Pyongyang sent a message to the Seoul at 11:20 a.m., quoting the head of the North Korean delegation to the cross-border military talks as saying, "I, upon authorization, inform the South side that the North-South military communications will be cut off and the members of the North side at the military communications liaison office in the zone under the control of the North and the South in the west coastal area will stop their activities from this moment."
That severs all military communication between Seoul and Pyongyang.
