North Korea warns to cut off all communication channels with South

North Korea says it will cut off all communication channels with South Korea as it escalates its pressure on the South for failing to stop activists from floating anti-Pyongyang leaflets across the border.

The North's Korean Central News Agency said Tuesday it will be the first step of the determination to completely shut down all contact means with South Korea and get rid of unnecessary things.

KNCA says all cross-border communication lines will be cut off on Tuesday noon.

In recent days, North Korea has increasingly expressed its anger over the leafleting by threatening to permanently shut down a liaison office with South
