MOSCOW--Sea trips between Vladivostok, Russia and isolated North Korea have resumed after a two-month break, with the transport of cargo, the RIA news agency reported on Monday, quoting the head of the company operating the route.

The North Korean-flagged Mangyonbong left the Russian port for North Korea's Rajin on Sunday, RIA said, citing the company's director general, Vladimir Baranov.

The ferry line, the only one between the two countries, was opened in May to carry cargo and passengers, predominantly Chinese tourists.

Russia imports a lot of NK laborers into Russia.
