North Korea has demolished the Arch of Reunification, a significant monument in Pyongyang that symbolized the hope for peaceful unification with South Korea, earlier this month. The destruction of the 100-foot tall structure, which stood prominently on Tongil (Unification) Street, was ordered by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un last week and has been confirmed by NK News through analysis of satellite imagery from Planet Labs. The monument disappeared from the capital's skyline sometime over the weekend, aligning with Kim Jong Un's recent rhetoric aiming to 'completely eliminate' the North Korean public's idea of a friendly future with the South.
