Life On The North Korean Border Following Train Disaster

NORTH KOREA BORDER, CHINA - APRIL 25: A Chinese woman prepares to donate a bag with cigarettes and cookies to a North Korean soldier hidden in the bushes at a border crossing about 20 km north of the Ryochon disaster site, April 25, 2004, Liaoning province, China. Although such "meetings" are strictly illegal, for North Koreans they are a rare opportunity to learn about the outside world and also receive luxury items they cannot afford to buy in North Korea. At least 154 people died, 76 of who are confirmed children, and more than 1300 were injured in a train explosion in Ryonchon, a North Korean town 20 km across the Dandong border. China said on Saturday it would give North Korea 1.21 million USD worth of medical supplies, tents and food to help it cope with the train disaster in Ryongchon. (Photo by Getty Images)
