'Marine Killed' Amid Clashes Between Koreas


A South Korean marine has reportedly been killed amid clashes after 200 North Korean artillery shells hit one of its islands, prompting Seoul to return fire.

It was one of the heaviest bombardments on the South since the Korean War ended in 1953.
Following the attack on Yeonpyeong island, 75 miles west of the South's capital, F16 fighter jets were scrambled to the area and Seoul says the country is on its highest non-wartime alert.
At least 14 South Korean soldiers were reportedly hurt, including three seriously, and around 60 to 70 houses were ablaze after the shelling.
Many of the rounds landed on a military base and also went into the sea near the countries' disputed western border.
Seoul says its troops based on the island then returned fire.
Between 1,200 and 1,300 people live there. TV pictures showed smoke rising from the location.
A witness said residents were evacuated during the shelling which lasted for about an hour and then stopped abruptly.
South Korean President Lee Myung-bak has held an emergency meeting following the incident.
He said he was trying to prevent the exchange of artillery fire from escalating into a greater conflict.
YTN television reported that Seoul had warned of a stronger response if Pyongyang continued with provocations.
China has expressed concern over the exchange of fire and urged the two sides to work toward peace and stability on the Korean peninsula.
The impoverished North depends heavily on China for economic and diplomatic support.
And its leader, Kim Jong-Il, has visited China twice this year, in part to gain backing for the appointment of his son to eventually take over the family dynasty.
Sky's Asia correspondent Holly Williams said: "We do see skirmishes from time to time in the Yellow Sea, which lies off the western coast of the Korean peninsula.
"These are disputed waters. This is the area where earlier this year a South Korean battleship was sunk, apparently by a North Korean torpedo. The North Koreans deny that.
"And last month, fire was returned across the demilitarised zone, the strip of land that divides North Korea and South Korea.
"But this is different. Civilians are involved. It is bigger in scale than the skirmishes we normally see."
She added: "Normally when this sort of aggression takes place started by the North we tend to assume it is something to do with dictator Kim Jong-Il's own position domestically.
"Perhaps he is having to shore up his own position. We know he has been ill in recent years and perhaps also weakened politically. There will be speculation this is more of the same."


The firing happened just over a month after Jong-Il unveiled his youngest son Kim Jong Un as his heir apparent.
The latest incident also came amid tension over North Korea's claim that it has a new uranium enrichment facility.
The countries' western maritime boundary has long been a flash point between the two Koreas.
The North does not recognise the border that was unilaterally drawn by the United Nations at the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.
North and South Korea have fought three bloody skirmishes near the maritime border in recent years, most recently in November 2009.Yahoo News
