The Korean Government’s National Archives and Records Service (NARS) on September 28 released historic photographs of the northern part of the Korean peninsula taken between the 1940s and 1960s. The photos were previously held by the Russian national archive.
NARS made an agreement on documentary exchanges with its Russian counterpart in September last year.
