Revealed information shows that there has been North Korean installation of loudspeakers "in multiple places" inside the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) from around Sunday. After the inter-Korean agreement signed in 2018, Pyongyang once dismantled dozens of loudspeakers at 40 locations along the border with South Korea.

"Such moves were spotted in more than 10 regions, which have taken place simultaneously," an official of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said.

"We are closely monitoring the North's military moves. We are fully ready to immediately respond to various possibilities," said the defense ministry.

In response, South Korea is also considering the option of restoring the loudspeaker system around 20 front-line areas, which was also dismantled in May 2018 in accordance with the agreement.
