South Korea removes border loudspeakers used for anti-North propaganda to ease tensions.

South Korea is removing loudspeakers along its border with North Korea as a conciliatory gesture to ease tensions. The loudspeakers had been used to broadcast anti-North Korean propaganda. President Lee Jae Myung's government halted the broadcasts in June, aiming to rebuild trust and revive dialogue, though North Korea has shown no interest in talking. This move does not impact South Korea's military readiness.
