SEOUL: Six people from the Republic of Korea (ROK) were missing near the border with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), after a sudden rise in a river possibly due to water released from a dam in the DPRK, a fire and rescue official said on Sunday.

"North Korea (DPRK) likely released water from its dam in the Imjin River," said an official at a fire station in Yuncheon, a town in northern Gyeonggi province just south of the border.

"Six people are missing and the search and rescue operation is under way," he said, adding another 10 were rescued.

Imjin River is one of several flowing from the DPRK to the ROK.
