SEOUL - North Korea has reopened its borders to its citizens staying abroad, a major step to ease its anti-epidemic border control measures, Xinhua quoted the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) report Sunday.

The State Emergency Epidemic Prevention Headquarters issued an announcement on Saturday, saying North Korean citizens abroad "have been allowed to return home", considering the eased worldwide pandemic situation.
