North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has ordered the distribution of aid to the border city of Kaesong after the area was locked down last month to fight the coronavirus, state media said Sunday.

This picture taken on August 5, 2020, and released from North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency on August 6 shows North Korean leader Kim Jong Un speaking at the Fourth Meeting of the Executive Policy Council of the Seventh Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea at the office building of the Central Committee of the WPK in Pyongyang.

A train carrying goods arrived in the “totally blocked” city of Kaesong on Friday, the official KCNA news agency reported. Kim had been concerned “day and night” about people in Kaesong as they continue their “campaign for checking the spread of the malignant virus”, the report added. The man showed symptoms of coronavirus and was put under “strict quarantine”, authorities said, but the North has yet to confirm whether he tested positive.
