SEOUL, Aug. 8 (UPI) -- China is taking a more active role in repatriating North Korean refugees as relations between Beijing and Seoul have deteriorated in recent weeks over the deployment of THAAD.
A source in North Hamgyong province told South Korean news service Daily NK two North Korean women in their 30s who left from Musan country in early August were repatriated after a resident in China reported them to authorities.
