Leaving North Korea

Post by Vil »

North Korea: Russian diplomats leave by hand-pushed trolley


In essence (there is a short video in the link as well, showing some of the efforts and the relief reaching the destination):

A group of Russian diplomats and their families made an unusual exit out of North Korea on a hand-pushed rail trolley due to strict Covid measures.
The eight people travelled by train and bus before pushing themselves across the Russian border for about 1km (0.6miles) over train tracks.

...
The main "engine" was the embassy's third secretary Vladislav Sorokin, who pushed the trolley across a rail bridge over the Tumen River into Russia, said the ministry.
