SEOUL: North Korea decides to toughen the restrictions to fight back the coronavirus pandemic on entering seawater as part of elevated steps. The state media says on Sunday, two days after South Korea said the North had banned sea fishing.

The Korean Central News Agency reported that "completely remove uncivilized and unhygienic elements that could help make room for the spread of an epidemic" on which the country is mobilizing more anti-virus units and establishing strong steps in winter. KCNA said officials were building strict measures for anti-epidemic along with border areas. The measures are to prevent the coronavirus from entering the country. Despite the claims, North Korea has swiftly sealed its borders, flew out diplomats, and isolated residents with symptoms. A major outbreak in North Korea could have devastating consequences because of its broken health care system and a chronic lack of medicines.

The National Intelligence Service says that lawmakers who attended the closed-door briefing also cited that North Korea executed an official for breaching regulations. Ha Tae-Keung, one of the lawmakers, quoted the agency as saying North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is displaying "excessive anger" and taking "irrational measures" over the pandemic and its economic impact.
