North Korea's trash-filled balloons landed on the premises of South Korea's presidential office compound in central Seoul on Wednesday morning, the Presidential Security Service said. This launch marked tenth trash-laden balloon launch this year.
South Korea resumed full-scale loudspeaker broadcasts toward the North on Sunday in response to the North's launch of another batch of waste-laden balloons toward the South.
South Korea resumed its propaganda loudspeaker broadcasts Thursday evening in response to North Korea's dispatch of trash-filled balloons for the eighth time this year.
Trash-laden balloons from North Korea resulted in property damage of over 26 million won ($18,824) in the Seoul metropolitan area, according to a lawmaker Sunday.
Parasites were discovered in trash-laden balloons launched by North Korea into South Korea, Seoul's Ministry of Unification said Monday.
At this point, it is common sense for the government to seek solutions.
The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said Monday that North Korea has sent more than 310 filth-filled balloons over the inter-Korean border between Sunday night and Monday morning.
If it sends nasty balloons to the South again, the government must resume its loudspeaker broadcasts across the border.
Our government must be thoroughly prepared for a possible armed conflict after the suspension of the effectiveness of the military agreement.
