Paratroopers jump out of airplanes and use parachutes to land safely on the ground. This is one of the three types of "forced entry" strategic techniques for entering a theater of war; the other two being by land and by water.
Dramatic Video Shows North Korean Soldier's Escape Across Border.
We start things off with the video footage showing what exactly happened when North Korean troops opened fire as one of their men tried to cross over to the South through the Joint Security Area.
UN command investigators say North Korea clearly violated the armistice agreement in the process twice during the pursuit.
Kim Hyun-bin at the defense ministry has our top story.
The United Nations Command on Wednesday released a video showing a North Korean soldier defecting to the South through the Joint Security Area of Panmunjeom last Monday.
The video shows the defector was using a jeep for his escape until it became stuck in a drainage ditch. As the defector got out of the jeep and started sprinting towards the Military Demarcation Line separating the two Koreas, four North Korean soldiers opened fire at him. Dozens of rounds were fired with several bullets hitting the defector.
The footage also shows one North Korean soldier crossing the military demarcation line for a few seconds during the pursuit. Soon after crossing the MDL, the soldier returns to the north side of the border.
The defector was wounded and fell unconscious on the southern side of the border. Three South Korean soldiers crawled towards him and dragged him to safety.
The UNC Special Investigation Team said that the investigation results show that North Korea violated the UN Armistice Agreement twice during the pursuit.
"The key findings of the special investigation team indicate that the KPA violated the Armistice Agreement by... one firing weapons across the MDL, two by actually crossing the MDL temporarily."
The UNC notified North Korea of these violations at the JSA on Wednesday through the normal communications channel in Panmunjeom, and requested a meeting to discuss the results of the investigation and measures to prevent future violations.
The UNC Special Investigation Team said on Wednesday the investigation team was made up of personnel from Australia, New Zealand, South Korea and the United States. Members from Sweden and Switzerland of the Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission also observed the process.

How does immigration work in Australia?
If you live overseas and you’d like the opportunity to live and work in Australia, the first step is to find out more about the visa options that are available to you.
Of those who believe the UK would be better off out of the European Union, immigration is often cited as the key issue. They say the UK should adopt an Australian style points-based system, where migrants are granted work visas on the basis of their age, skills and qualifications.
