North Korea sent a new wave of trash-laden balloons toward its southern neighbor after Kim Jong Un’s sister warned of further responses to the South’s “psychological warfare.”
North Korea sent a new wave of trash-laden balloons toward its southern neighbor late Sunday, after Kim Jong Un’s powerful sister warned of further responses if the South keeps up its “psychological warfare.” The new balloons, which Seoul has previously slammed as “base and dangerous,” come in apparent retaliation for the decision by South Korea to resume broadcasting anti-North Korean propaganda over loudspeakers in border areas.
In recent weeks, the North has floated more than a thousand trash-filled balloons across the heavily fortified border, in what it claims is a response to the years-long practice among South Korean activist groups of sending balloons with anti-North Korea leaflets in the other direction. As of Monday morning, the South Korean military has found “around 50 balloons” that fell into its territory overnight Sunday.
