N. Korea designates additional 'no-sail' zones: sources

SEOUL, Feb. 1 (Yonhap) -- North Korea declared five additional maritime areas off the country's east and west coasts as "no-sail" zones over the weekend, raising concerns over the possibility of a short-range missile launch, South Korean military sources said Monday.

The move, taken on Sunday, followed the North's declaration on Jan. 25 of two maritime areas near the Northern Limit Line (NLL) in the Yellow Sea as "no-sail" zones until March 29, the last day of the country's "regular" military drills. The NLL, the de facto inter-Korean maritime border, was drawn by the U.S.-led U.N. Command at the end of the Korean War and the communist North has refused to honor it.
