North Korea’s constitution now officially defines South Korea as a “hostile state”, marking the first time the regime declared legal changes dictated by Kim Jong-un, according to state media. North Korea’s defence ministry said they have destroyed up to 60m-long sections of two pairs of roads and railway routes, one pair on the western portion of the inter-Korean border and the other on the eastern side.
