North Korea Expels US Soldier Travis King for Illegal Entry
North Korea has announced its decision to "expel" US Army Private Travis King, who illegally crossed into North Korean territory from South Korea during a tour of the joint security area in July. North Korean state media claims that King confessed to intruding due to dissatisfaction with the US Army's treatment and racial discrimination, as well as disillusionment with the unequal US society. The report does not provide details on when, where, or how King will be expelled.
