SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea threatened Monday to expel South Koreans working in the North if Seoul does not prevent activists from dropping propaganda leaflets across the border, a South Korean defense official said.

Military officers made the demand to their South Korean counterparts during a 20-minute meeting at the border, the second official meeting between the rival Koreas since the North broke off relations in February.

The North Koreans repeated a threat made during talks earlier in the month to expel South Koreans working at two joint reconciliation projects in the North if the leafletting does not stop, said Col. Lee Sang-cheol, head of the Defense Ministry's North Korea department.

The joint projects are an industrial park in the border city of Kaesong and a resort at scenic Diamond Mountain.
