Command at the border\u2019s Panmunjom village earlier Monday. It\u2019s the second such trilateral meeting to examine efforts to demilitarize Panmunjom, the most well-known place inside the 155-mile-long Demilitarized Zone that bisect the two Koreas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disarming the village was among a set of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/asia-pacific\/2018\/09\/21\/could-political-agreement-between-north-and-south-korea-actually-defuse-tensions\/\"> tension-reduction agreements<\/a> signed by the Koreas&#8217; defense chiefs on the sidelines of their leaders&#8217; summit in Pyongyang last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/your-military\/2018\/10\/01\/koreas-begin-removing-land-mines-from-the-dmz-to-ease-military-tensions\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"158\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/dmz.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Koreas begin removing land mines from the DMZ to ease military tensions<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The U.S. and the Koreas have placed an estimated 2 million mines along the border.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the next disarmament steps at Panmunjom, the two Koreas and the U.N. Command agreed on withdrawing weapons and guard posts there by Thursday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The three sides will then spend two days jointly verifying those measures, Seoul\u2019s Defense Ministry said in a statement. The Koreas eventually aim to have 35 unarmed personnel from each side guard the village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Officially, the entire DMZ area, including Panmunjom, is jointly overseen by North Korea and the U.N. Command, a legacy of the Korean War, which ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty. North Korea and China signed the armistice on one side, while the U.N. Command signed on the other side. South Korea wasn&#8217;t a signatory to the agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Panmunjom is where the armistice was signed. Numerous incidents of bloodshed and violence have taken place there since the war&#8217;s end, and rival soldiers face each other only feet away from each other at Panmunjom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of the September deals, the two Koreas are separately clearing mines from another front-line area, where they plan their first-ever joint searches for the remains of soldiers killed during the Korean War. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Koreas also plan to establish buffer zones along their land and sea boundaries, and a no-fly zone above the border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also Monday, officials from the Koreas met at their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/flashpoints\/2018\/09\/14\/for-the-first-time-rival-koreas-open-liaison-office-near-the-border\/\">recently launched liaison office<\/a> at the North Korean border town of Kaesong for talks on how to cooperate in forestry sectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">General-level officers from the Koreas are to meet for bilateral talks at Panmunjom on Friday to discuss more details about how to implement the tension-reduction deals, according to the South Korean Defense Ministry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seoul\u2019s liberal government is pushing for greater engagement with North Korea, but U.S. officials say such moves should be in tandem with global efforts to denuclearize North Korea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The countries also plan first-ever joint searches for remains of soldiers killed during the Korean
