US President Barack Obama spoke to his South Korean counterpart Lee Myung-bak, renewing Washington's "unshakeable support" for the country in the wake of a North Korean missile attack that killed two marines.
Obama told President Lee that the thoughts and prayers of the American people were with the loved ones of those who were killed or wounded in the attack.
The President said North Korea must stop its provocative actions, which will only lead to its further isolation, and fully abide by the terms of Armistice Agreement and its obligations under international law, according to the White House.
Two South Korean marines were killed and five were seriously injured when North Korea allegedly shelled a border island in what Seoul said was a "pre-planned" attack on Tuesday.
Obama also had a situation room meeting with his top national security advisers about the situation on the Korean peninsula
