Euronews also noted that South Korean forces were in the DMZ to clear the area in advance of an operation with the UN Command to assess terrain changes caused by North Korean forces south of the Military Demarcation Line. The report included details about the difficulty of clearing vegetation and the assessment that mine detectors may have been operated too far above the ground. It also mentioned the discovery of an unexploded North Korean plastic anti-personnel mine and that the military has necessary measures at its disposal."],"right":["The right-rated reports led on South Korea stating that North Korean mines caused a blast in the DMZ, calling it an armistice violation. The Star Kuala Lumpur reported that Defence Minister Kang Shin-chul said the mines appeared to have been planted as part of North Korea's border fortification work near the Military Demarcation Line. It stated that the responsibility lies with North Korea and that Seoul would take corresponding measures. The report mentioned that Seoul would seek to engage North Korea directly over the incident and strongly urge them to come to the table to verify facts together. It also noted that South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said a probe found an additional North Korean resin anti-personnel mine near the blast site and that the mines did not appear to have drifted. The Star Kuala Lumpur also included commentary on how the incident could complicate President Lee Jae Myung's efforts to improve ties with Pyongyang, but that Seoul was unlikely to abandon attempts at dialogue. Modern Diplomacy and India Today also highlighted the armistice violation and the potential for Seoul to respond in stages. Malay Mail and Yonhap News Agency reported on Defence Minister Kang Shin-chul's statements regarding North Korean landmines and border fortification."],"comparison":""},"blindspot":{"status":"settled","underrepresentedSide":"left","note":"This finding is reported only after the coverage watch was
