KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 28 (KUNA) -- Malaysia banned citizens from travelling to North Korea on Thursday until further notice.
In a statement, the ministry of Foreign Affairs said the decision was taken "in view of the escalation of tensions in the Korean peninsula and related developments arising from missile tests".
The ban will be reviewed once the situation returns to normal, the statement added.
In recent days, North Korea claimed the United States declared war against the country, and has threatened to take down US war bombers. (end) aab.mb
