Sinuiju citizens dying from lack of food 

Recently, food-poor households are increasing rapidly as North Koreas food shortages continue. 

Sinuiju, a city where Chinese-North Korean trade was active, is now collapsing from starvation. A source reported that Sinuiju citizens started dying from starvation since the Lunar Years holiday.

The following news shocked North Koreans, because in Sinuiju, some people have private plots of lands to farm on. However, the authorities have been forbidding the movement of people amid COVID-19 restrictions. Therefore, people couldnt dig up wild vegetables nor fish in the rivers.
