SEOUL, South Korea — The South Korean Navy fired warning shots at a North Korean fishing boat on Wednesday after the vessel strayed across the two Koreas’ border on the Yellow Sea, the Defense Ministry said.

The North Korean boat then retreated to the northern side of the line, the ministry said.

The countries have had violent exchanges before along their disputed maritime border, and a South Korean naval vessel sank there in March, killing 46 sailors.
