China and North Korea officially marked the long-delayed opening of their most significant land border crossing on Thursday (October 15), aiming to rejuvenate trade and commerce after years of soured ties and pandemic-related disruptions to cross-border exchange.
The 3-km (2-mile) New Yalu River Bridge and the Chinese customs at the end of the 1.3-km crossing saw increased activity over the past few days, with trucks adorned with Chinese flags waiting on the bridge ahead of a crossing on Thursday.n18oc_crux | n18oc_world
