The patrol forces inspected border landmarks from No.359 to No.362. Despite the harsh weather, they cleared bushes and cleaned up the landmark areas, exchanged contents related to the prevention of illegal border crossings, and participated in COVID-19 control and border protection work.
The inspection yielded no signs of law violation or illegal border-crossing, while the troops maintained the border landmarks.
This is a joint activity between the two units to strengthen their cooperation in border protection and management, thereby building common borders of peace, friendship, cooperation, and development.
