Are they man-made islands or man-made targets? Guess it doesn’t matter, the bombs our military drops certainly will not care.

The DPRK has a surplus of sand; they need to do something with it.

The short of it... they built a tide control system (West Sea Barrage) on the Taedong (the river that goes through Pyongyang), but as a result, sand is no longer effectively transported out of the river. Meanwhile their policies, and the famine that led to agricultural lands being abandoned, increased erosion upstream. So they have to constantly dredge the Taedong. South Korea used to buy the sand from them for use in concrete (it’s a good sand for concrete), but they stopped doing so.
