Second Battle of Yeonpyeong The Second Battle of Yeonpyeong was a confrontation at sea between North Korean and South Korean patrol boats along a disputed maritime boundary near Yeonpyeong Island in the Yellow Sea in 2002 . This followed a similar confrontation in 1999 . Two North Korean patrol boats crossed the contested border and engaged two South Korean patrol boats . The North Koreans withdrew before South Korean reinforcements arrived . Background . The Northern Limit Line is considered by South Korea as the sea boundary between itself and North Korea , while North Korea disagrees and states that the boundary is farther south . North Korean fishing vessels often wander into the area and are frequently chased away by South Korean patrol vessels . Occasionally a North Korean patrol tries to enforce its southern claim by traversing the limit line . In 2002 one such incursion turned into a naval battle along the limit line . Engagement . On June 29 , 2002 a North Korean patrol boat crossed the northern limit line and was warned to turn back . Shortly afterward a second patrol craft crossed the line and it too was warned to retreat back across the line . The North Korean boats began threatening and harassing the South Korean vessels following them . After traveling three miles south past the limit line , the North Korean vessels attacked the two South Korean patrol boats that had been monitoring them . At 10 : 25 The vessel that had crossed the line first opened fire with its 85mm gun and scored a direct hit on the wheelhouse of one of the South Korean craft causing several casualties . The two squadrons then began a general engagement with the South Koreans using their 40 and 30 mm guns against the North Korean RPGs , 85mm , and 35mm guns . After about ten minutes two more patrol boats and two corvettes reinforced the South Korean vessels and severely damaged one of the North Korean craft . Now heavily outnumbered and taking casualties the North Korean vessels were forced to retreat back across the Limit Line at 10 : 59 . Aftermath . Both the North Korean and South Korean flotillas took casualties from the action . Thirteen North Koreans were killed and twenty five wounded , while four South Korean sailors died and nineteen were injured . The damaged South Korean craft later sank while under tow , while the damaged North Korean vessel was able to limp its way back to port . Both sides laid blame on each other and South Korea demanded an apology from North Korea . According to a North Korean defector ' s statement in 2012 , the North Korean patrol boat crewmembers involved in the battle suffered extensive splinter injuries from the South Korean " Devastator " shells . The injured North Koreans were reportedly quarantined in a hospital in Pyongyang to hide the extent of the casualties suffered in the battle .

Red fuming nitric acid Red fuming nitric acid ( RFNA ) is a storable oxidizer used as a rocket propellant . It consists of 84 % nitric acid ( N ) , 13 % dinitrogen tetroxide and 1 – 2 % water . The color of red fuming nitric acid is due to the dinitrogen tetroxide , which breaks down partially to form nitrogen dioxide . The nitrogen dioxide dissolves until the liquid is saturated , and evaporates off into fumes with a suffocating odor . RFNA increases the flammability of combustible materials and is highly exothermic when reacting with water . It is usually used with an inhibitor ( with various , sometimes secret , substances , including hydrogen fluoride ; any such combination is called " inhibited RFNA " IRFNA ) because nitric acid attacks most container materials . It can also be a component of a monopropellant ; with substances like amine nitrates dissolved in it , it can be used as the sole fuel in a rocket . It is not normally used this way however . During World War II , the German military used RFNA in some rockets . The mixtures used were called S - Stoff ( 96 % nitric acid with 4 % ferric chloride ) and SV - Stoff ( 94 % nitric acid with 6 % dinitrogen tetroxide ) and nicknamed " Salbei " ( sage ) . Inhibited RFNA was the oxidizer of the world ' s most - launched light orbital rocket , the Kosmos - 3M . IRFNA used in modified SS - 1 Scud missiles as an oxidizer by the Iraqi military during the 1991 Persian Gulf War , was suggested as a possible factor causing Gulf War Syndrome . However , this theory was later refuted . Other uses for RFNA include fertilizers , dye intermediates , explosives , and pharmaceutic aid as acidifier . It can also be used as a laboratory reagent in photoengraving and metal etching .

Ertholmene Ertholmene , generally called Christiansø , is a small archipelago situated approximately 18 km northeast of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea . Its permanent population is 92 ( ) and its area is . Ertholmene belongs to Denmark and has the country ' s easternmost point . Ertholmene consists of three main islands , " Christiansø " ( named after King Christian V ) , " Frederiksø " ( named after King Frederick IV ) and " Græsholm " , plus a number of minor rocks and skerries . The best known of the latter are Tat and Østerskær , Denmark ' s easternmost point . Christiansø makes up 22 . 3 hectares , Frederiksø 4 , and Græsholm 11 hectares . Only Christiansø and Frederiksø are inhabited , while Græsholm is a bird reserve . The sound between Christiansø and Frederiksø , a well - sheltered natural harbour , is crossed by a pedestrian bridge that is pulled aside to accommodate larger vessels . History . Fishermen from Bornholm have used Ertholmene for temporary shelter since the Middle Ages . The first permanent inhabitation was the result of the Danish - Swedish conflicts in the late 17th century . As Denmark needed a naval base in the central Baltic Sea , a fort was built on Christiansø and Frederiksø in 1684 which served as an outpost for the Danish Navy until 1855 . Christiansø Church originally served the garrison . The population peaked at the census in 1810 which showed 829 inhabitants . Many of the historical buildings now serve as living quarters for the local population , and some are rented , year after year , to regular summer residents . The islands ' external appearance has changed very little in over 300 years . Girdled by thick granite walls with old cannons pointed seaward , Christiansø is a picturesque tourist spot seemingly frozen in time . A former part of the fort , " Store Tårn " has housed the Christiansø Lighthouse for the past 200 years , and a small round tower on Frederiksø , " Lille Tårn , " serves as a museum . Administrative status . The islands are state property - an unincorporated area - and do not belong to either a municipality or a region , instead , they are governed by an administrator appointed by the Danish ministry of defence which is responsible for carrying out the tasks normally performed by municipalities . Major sources of income are fishery and tourism . There are 80 , 000 tourists per year , mostly day visitors arriving via Bornholm . Ertholmene is also a popular destination for yachts . The islanders will be exempt from the central government 8 % " Health Contribution " tax ( " Sundhedsbidrag " ) introduced with " Kommunalreformen " ( " The Municipal Reform " of 2007 ) , because it is anticipated the relatively isolated islets would otherwise be abandoned . This tax replaced the county tax , which the islanders were also exempt from paying , not being part of a county .
