Two Koreas exchange warning shots near sea border amid tensions

 North and South Korea exchanged warning shots off the west coast on Monday, accusing each other of breaching their maritime borders amid heightened military tension. North Korea’s military said it fired 10 rounds of artillery warning shots towards its territorial waters, where “naval enemy movement was detected.”

The South’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said it broadcast warnings and fired warning shots to see off a North Korean merchant vessel that crossed the Northern Limit Line, near the outpost of Baengnyeong on Monday morning.
