##韩朝跨境河流下游河道变宽，疑因朝鲜泄洪，韩方启动应急响应
**韩联社首尔、涟川8月22日电** 韩国环境部22日表示，从当天凌晨4时许拍摄的卫星影像来看，韩朝跨境河流临津江下游的河道变宽，推测临津江上游的朝鲜黄江大坝可能开闸泄洪。
据悉，受此影响，地处京畿道涟川郡临津江非军事区（DMZ）的必胜桥水位逼近可启动“关注”级别应急响应的7.5米，导致下游的临津桥发布洪水预警。据汉江洪水控制站消息，截至当天凌晨4时10分，必胜桥水位涨至7.27米，之后于6时20分降至7.04米。
环境部发现黄江大坝开闸泄洪的迹象后，立即通知了附近地区的政府、部队等单位，并启动应急响应机制。
临津江是韩朝跨境河流，其上游的黄江大坝位于朝鲜境内。近年来，朝鲜在未事先通知韩国的情况下，多次擅自开闸泄洪，给韩国下游地区造成了一定的安全隐患。
韩国政府对此表示遗憾，并要求朝鲜在未来进行水库泄洪时提前通知韩国，以便韩国做好防范措施。
**专家分析**
有专家分析认为，朝鲜此次开闸泄洪可能是由于近期朝鲜半岛降雨量较大，导致黄江大坝水位上升，为避免洪水泛滥而采取的措施。
也有专家指出，朝鲜可能利用泄洪来向韩国施压，以达到其政治目的。
**未来展望**
韩朝关系近年来一直处于紧张状态，朝鲜的此次泄洪事件可能会加剧两国之间的矛盾。韩国政府将密切关注事态发展，并采取必要的措施保障国民安全。

##South Korea Responds to Suspected North Korean Dam Release, Lower LimjinRiver Widens
**Seoul/Yeoncheon, South Korea, August22 (Yonhap)** – South Korea’s Ministry of Environment said Tuesday that satellite imagery taken early this morning showed a widening of the lower Limjin River, a river that flows across the border between North and South Korea. The ministry suspects that North Korea may have opened the sluice gates of the Hwanggang Damupstream, leading to the release of water.
The incident caused the water level at the Piseung Bridge, located in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in Yeoncheon County, Gyeonggi Province, to rise close tothe 7.5-meter mark, triggering a “watch” level emergency response. The Han River Flood Control Center reported that the water level at Piseung Bridge reached 7.27 meters at 4:10 a.m. before falling to 7.04 meters at 6:20 a.m.
Upon detecting signs of the Hwanggang Dam’s release, the Ministry of Environment immediately notified nearby government agencies, military units, and activated emergency response protocols.
The Limjin River is a transboundary river, with the Hwanggang Dam located in North Korea. In recent years, North Korea has repeatedly opened the dam’s sluice gates without prior notification to South Korea, posing safety risks to downstream areas in the South.
The South Korean government expressed regret over the incident and urged North Korea to provide advance notice in thefuture before releasing water from its dams to allow South Korea to take preventive measures.
**Expert Analysis**
Some experts believe that the recent release of water from the Hwanggang Dam could be attributed to heavy rainfall on the Korean Peninsula, leading to rising water levels in the dam and necessitating a release to prevent flooding.
Other experts suggest that North Korea might be using the dam release as a means to exert pressure on South Korea for political purposes.
**Future Outlook**
Relations between North and South Korea have been tense in recent years, and the latest incident could further exacerbate tensions between the two countries. The South Korean government will closelymonitor the situation and take necessary measures to ensure the safety of its citizens.
