South and North Korea are Thursday to hold their first military talks for two years in an attempt to ease tensions heightened by a naval disaster near their disputed sea border.

Three officers from each side will meet at the border truce village of Panmunjom at 10:00 am (0100 GMT) after the North accepted the South's revised date for the meeting.
