UN body probes possible Koreas truce violation
None
The United Nations Command launched a probe Saturday into whether the deadly sinking of a South Korean navy ship blamed on North Korea violated the Korean War truce agreement. Pyongyang denounced the investigation as a "bogus mechanism."
Representatives from 11 countries - South Korea, United States, Britain, Canada, Australia, France, New Zealand, Turkey, Denmark, Switzerland, and Sweden - will review findings of a multinational investigation into the sinking and determine the scope of any North Korean armistice violations, UN Command spokesman Kim Young-kyu said.
