A South Korean government official said: “North Korea seems to be hosting what appears to be a meeting of foreign diplomatic missions.”
The number of ambassadors involved is not known, but South Korea believes the gathering could be used to discuss further military provocation by North Korea.
In a press meeting, the Ministry of Unification’s spokesman Baik Tae-hyun said: “North Korea held the 43rd ambassadors’ meeting in July 2015 and [the most recent meeting] seems to be in line with that.”
