> North Korean leader Kim Jong Un reportedly entered China across the newly opened New Yalu River Bridge and reached Dandong, South Korea’s Yonhap news agency said. The bridge had stood unused for years because roads and customs facilities on the North Korean side were lacking; it officially opened about a week ago.
