Over 100 North Korean troops have died due to suspected COVID-19 symptoms since February around the borders with China, reported the Yomiuri Shimbun on Sunday.

 

โ€œIt is suspected that deaths are associated with COVID-19 even though it is hard to specify the exact reasons,โ€ said a source familiar with the negotiations among South Korea, the United States and Japan. โ€œNorth Korea has failed to keep the virus from occurring around the borders and penetrating across the country although it closed its borders with China on Jan. 29.โ€
