South Korea’s military has returned a North Korean boat and its seven crew members across the countries’ disputed western sea boundary a day after they drifted into waters near a border island.

South Korea’s navy fired warning shots on Tuesday to chase away a North Korean patrol vessel that temporarily crossed the so-called Northern Limit Line while pursuing the boat near Baekryeong island.
