Only 44 kilometers or, less than an hour's drive,
from Seoul, the third tunnel was discovered in October 1978. Almost
identical in structure to Tunnel Ⅱ, the 1.635 kilometer-long tunnel,
1.95 meters high and 2.1 meters wide, penetrates 435 meters south
of the Military Demarcation Line at a point only 4 kilometers south
of the Truce Village of Panmunjom. It runs through bedrock at a depth
of about 73 meters below ground. Capable of moving a full division
per hour, plus their weapons, it is evidently designed for a surprise
attack on Seoul. Almost identical with Tunnel Ⅱin structure, this
tunnel is only 2 kilometers from a key outpost defending the Munsan
corridor leaing to Seoul. |
