Seoul court orders North Korea to pay $32.5M for 2020 office bombing

A South Korean court has ordered North Korea to pay approximately $32.5 million in compensation for the 2020 bombing of an inter-Korean liaison office in Kaesong. The ruling is largely symbolic as enforcement against North Korea is unlikely, but it formalizes South Korean legal accountability for the incident. This continues the pattern of legal actions against Pyongyang with limited practical effect.
