North Korea says it will resume 'loudspeaker broadcasts' to South Korea! Seoul issues stern warning: Will punish decisively ZH北韓稱將恢復對韓國「擴音廣播」!首爾強硬警告:將堅決懲罰
Newtalk新聞 韓國與北韓邊境緊張情勢持續升溫。韓國國防部於今(20)日發布聲明表示,對北韓揚言加強邊境軍事部署、恢復對韓國的擴音器心戰廣播深表憂慮,警告若平壤以韓國軍方的正當防衛措施為藉口,進一步發動軍事挑釁,韓國將採取堅決應對措施。 據《路透社》報導,韓國國防部強調,軍方在軍事分界線(MDL)附近實施的警告廣播及警告射擊,都是為了防止北韓人員越界、要求越界人員撤離而採取的正當防衛措施,警告平壤不得以此為藉口發動挑釁。 韓國國防部在聲明中表示,對北韓揚言在邊境增派戰術打擊武器、恢復向韓國進行擴音器廣播,以及採取其他軍事應對措施深表憂慮。國防部指出,韓國軍方在軍事分界線附近採取的警告廣播及警告射擊,目的在於阻止北韓軍人越界,並要求已越界的人員撤離。 國防部警告,如果北韓以韓國軍方採取的正當措施為藉口,進一步發動挑釁,韓國將予以堅決懲罰。同時呼籲北韓停止提出缺乏根據的指控,避免軍事人員越過軍事分界線,並透過溝通解決雙方對軍事分界線的認知分歧。 韓國聯合參謀本部總長陳永承當日視察負責中部戰線的陸軍部隊,檢視前線戰備狀況,並要求軍方強化在非軍事區的行動主導權。陳永承表示,韓國無法接受北韓將韓國軍方的正當軍事行動扭曲為挑釁,藉此將升高軍事緊張的責任轉嫁給韓國。 陳永承並指出,北韓上月在軍事分界線以南埋設地雷,造成韓國軍人重傷,形容此舉是明確的挑釁,也違反停戰協定。不過,相關地雷來源與責任歸屬仍存在爭議。根據《路透社》9月27日報導,9月21日發生的地雷爆炸造成3名韓國士兵受傷,韓國軍方與聯合國軍司令部隨後展開調查,以釐清爆炸原因及地雷來源。 報導指出,韓國此次強硬表態,起因於北韓領導人金正恩的胞妹金與正19日透過北韓官媒發表聲明,指責韓國軍方在北韓進行邊境防禦工程期間,使用自動步槍及大口徑機槍進行警告射擊,危及北韓士兵安全。金與正表示,北韓正考慮在邊境增派戰術打擊武器,並恢復針對韓國的擴音器宣傳廣播。 金與正並聲稱,韓國軍方自8月1日至10月17日,已進行2,870次警告廣播及201次警告射擊。不過,相關數字為北韓單方面說法,尚未獲得獨立證實。 北韓自2024年4月起,陸續在邊境埋設地雷、設置障礙物並加強防禦工事。韓國軍方本月5日表示,北韓今年已動員多達7,000名人員投入相關工程,北韓人員越過軍事分界線的情況則約發生50次。 自韓國總統李在明上任後,南韓政府積極尋求恢復與北韓的外交對話,並將緩和邊境緊張列為施政重點之一。然而,隨著北韓揚言增加邊境武器部署及恢復擴音器廣播,雙方近期的緩和努力恐再度受到衝擊,軍事分界線附近發生誤判或衝突的風險也隨之增加。延伸閱讀:衛星揭金正恩海濱度假奢華生活 80米遊艇配50米泳池及滑水道 韓總統李在明施政滿意度上升2.1個百分點 但不滿意度仍達六成童文薰觀點》打掉伊朗核武能力之後 誰來簽字?憂油料有問題!濟州航空誤加「中國燃油」被迫停飛 南韓交通部結果出爐是否不副署「老福法」修正 卓榮泰:我們在議場內回答
