North Korea's leader, Kim Jong Un, has announced that the country will not seek external assistance to recover from the recent floods that devastated areas near the border with China. Kim ordered officials to bring thousands of displaced residents to the capital, Pyongyang, to provide them with better care during the recovery process.
According to reports, it is estimated that it will take approximately two to three months to rebuild homes and stabilize the flood-affected regions. In the meantime, the government plans to accommodate around 15,400 individuals, including mothers, children, older adults, and disabled soldiers, in facilities in Pyongyang.
