China building new military base near North Korea border: Report

China is building on its military presence at its border with North Korea, a source in North Korea tells Radio Free Asia.


Beijing is also doing its part to keep out defectors, and is constructing more barbed-wire fences, according to the report.

The source in North Hamgyong Province said a large-scale military facility in the Chinese city of Longjing, in Jilin Province, has been under development.

The base faces the Sambong workers' zone in the North Korean county of Onsong.
