A US Air Force transport aircraft arrived from North Korea, carrying the remains of service members killed in the Korean War.
The aircraft departed from Osan Air Base in Pyeongtaek at 0555 hours for Kalma Airport in the North's easter coastal city of Wonsan. The US did not reveal the number of remains, while informed sources said about 55 sets of remains in wooden boxers were repatriated.
The repatriation came on a day when the two Koreas and the United States mark the 65th anniversary of the signing of the armistice agreement. It is part of the June 12 summit agreement between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on building new relations.
