Remains Returned By North Korea Most Likely American

Description

Reuters reports that more than 50 boxes handed over by North Korea to the United States last week appear to hold human remains from the 1950-1953 Korean War. According to an initial forensic analysis, a U.S. official said on Wednesday the remains are likely American. A U.S. military transport aircraft on Friday flew the remains from the North Korean city of Wonsan. It was a first step in implementing an agreement reached at a landmark summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and U.S. President Donald Trump in June. More than 7,700 U.S. troops remain unaccounted for from the Korea War. About 5,300 were lost in what is now North Korea.
