Artillery fire  was heard on Monday a South Korean island near waters disputed by North Korea, a Reuters reporter said, suggesting a live-fire drill had begun.

The sound of artillery firing was heard from an air raid bunker on the Yeonpyeong, the island that came under North  Korean attack last month, a Reuters reporter had said.

Fog had delayed the drill from taking place on the island  which is about 80 km (50 miles)) from mainland South Korea.

A military official said he could not confirm that the  exercise had begun.
