    SEOUL (Xinhua) -- South Korea today confirmed an additional outbreak of bird flu in a southeastern region, raising fears of further spread, local media reported.

    The deadly H5N1 avian influenza virus was found at a chicken farm in Yangsan, South Gyeongsang province, after some 60 chickens on the farm died Thursday.

    Quarantine authorities had culled 300 chickens and 100 ducks on the farm as a precautionary measure before the test results came out on Sunday.
