North Korea has ordered military units and police to shoot on sight anyone in the country who goes within one kilometer (0.6 miles) of the Sino-Korean border, the latest of Pyongyang’s draconian measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19, sources in the country told RFA Wednesday.
They don't care why you're there, if you're in the zone, they'll shoot to kill.
Supposedly, this is to prevent the spread of COVID.
