Govt. launches 2nd half program to recover remains of fallen Korean War soldiers

The South Korean Ministry of National Defense has initiated a second-half operation to recover and identify the remains of soldiers who died in the 1950-53 Korean War. This effort, led by the Agency for KIA Recovery and Identification, involves deploying troops from 14 Army divisions and the 1st Marine Division to excavate sites in mountainous regions across several provinces. The operation runs from August 14 to November 27, with a special focus on key battle zones such as Paju, Cheorwon, and Gunwi. The Army's 5th Division will remain in the Baengmagoji area throughout the three-month period, having previously recovered 77 sets of remains and over 31,000 personal items during the first phase of the mission.
