| South Korea's navy has fired shots at a North Korean boat that strayed into its waters, the Yonhap news agency reports. |
5
shots were fired at 15:30 (06:30GMT) on Saturday when the patrol boat crossed
the de facto maritime border, Yonhap, South Korea's leading news agency, said.
North
Korea disputes the maritime border in the Yellow Sea and has crossed it before.
The
line was breached several times in February last year.
And
ships between the 2 countries briefly exchanged fire near Yeonpyeong Island
last October.
The
incident comes as the countries hold the 2nd of 2 reunions for family members
separated by the 1950-53 Korean War.
The reunions taking
place this week are only the 2nd round in the past 5 years.
