, ‘[Seoul=Newsis] Reporter Ok Seung-wook = It was reported that our military completed preparations for training in border areas of Gangwon-do and Gyeonggi-do. On the afternoon of the 4th, it was announced that training could resume anytime according to the instructions of the Army, Navy, and Air Force Chiefs of Staff if President Yoon Suk-yeol revisits the resolution on the full suspension of the 9·19 inter-Korean military agreement.’,
,
, ‘The government held a National Security Council meeting in the morning and passed the resolution on the full suspension of the 9·19 inter-Korean military agreement. If President Yoon Suk-yeol revisits this decision in the afternoon, the effectiveness of the military agreement will be immediately suspended.’,
,
, ‘It is reported that the Army, Navy, and Air Force have all completed preparations for training in border areas. Upon the commander’s orders, all training activities that have been restricted, such as shooting practices near the Military Demarcation Line (MDL), are expected to resume.’,
,
, ‘Lee Seong-joon, Director of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Public Affairs Office, explained at a regular defense ministry briefing that “When the military agreement is suspended, there will be more flexibility in operations,” and “As a result, there will be more things that our military can do.”‘,
,
, ‘He added, “There are things that can be done immediately, and we may also reveal preparations for such actions,” and continued, “These aspects are also dependent on North Korea.”‘,
,
, ‘However, when asked about what measures can be taken immediately, he avoided answering by saying, “There are various measures, and it is inappropriate to explain them.”‘,
,
, ‘It is expected that real shooting drills that were previously impossible in border areas will be carried out once the military agreement is suspended.’,
,
, ‘The 9·19 military agreement includes the suspension of various military exercises in the Military Demarcation Line (MDL) area, establishment of no-fly zones based on the MDL, suspension of coastal shooting and maritime maneuver training in the East and West Seas buffer zones, and suspension of artillery shooting and large-scale outdoor maneuver training within 5km from the MDL.’,
,
, ‘The Army has shooting ranges located within 5 km of the MDL, such as the Storri Shooting Range (Paju, Gyeonggi-do), Cheonmiri Shooting Range (Yanggu, Gangwon-do), Jeokgeori Shooting Range (Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do), Chilseong Shooting Range (Hwacheon, Gangwon-do), and Songjiho Shooting Range (Goseong, Gangwon-do), where shooting drills are likely to take place first.’,
,
, ‘There is speculation that the Navy will resume artillery shooting drills in the Northern Limit Line (NLL) area. In addition, Navy ships can remove the gun cover on their cannon barrels, allowing for more immediate responses to North Korean provocations. Regular shooting drills of our Marine Corps forces could also be conducted on Baekryeongdo and Yeonpyeongdo.’,
,
, ‘The Air Force is expected to enhance reconnaissance missions by deploying reconnaissance aircraft to forward areas and may also be able to conduct air-to-ground shooting in border areas.’,
,
, ‘Director Lee Seong-joon said, “The military is an organization that performs missions and carries them out following orders,” and added, “Those kinds of guidelines will be issued by higher authorities.”‘,
