The South Korean army reports that North Korea has begun preparations to blow up roads connecting the two countries, as tension rises between the two neighbors. The South Korean military is also ready to respond to any potential attack from the dictatorial northern neighbor.

Pyongyang announced days ago its intention to fully separate North Korean territory from South Korea by cutting off roads and railways. North Korea stated on Sunday that it is considering a "declaration of war" if it detects another South Korean drone over its territory.

North Korea accuses Seoul of regularly sending drones across the border to disseminate propaganda leaflets containing "inflammatory rumors and nonsense." This has prompted Pyongyang to mobilize eight artillery brigades to prepare to "open fire."

The South Korean army denied involvement in the drone flights. There is local speculation about activist groups that often send propaganda material and American dollars across the border, usually via balloons.
