首尔消息：上个月，朝鲜非军事区内发生的地雷爆炸事件导致多名韩国士兵受伤。这一事件传递出一个明确信号：朝鲜领导人金正恩决意阻止本国民众逃离。
SEOUL—News that North Korean land mines left South Korean troops wounded in the Korean Demilitarized Zone last month sent a clear message: North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is bent on keeping his people from escaping.
这些地雷位于非军事区西部，该区域是一条宽约两英里的地带，分隔着朝鲜与韩国。爆炸造成三名士兵受伤。首尔官方表示，这些地雷几乎可以肯定是朝鲜蓄意埋设的。
The land mines in the western part of the DMZ—the roughly 2-miles-wide strip of land that separates the North and South—injured three soldiers. Officials in Seoul said the mines were almost certainly deliberately planted by North Korea.
