North Korea has resumed its provocative act of sending balloons filled with trash towards South Korea in retaliation against South Korea 's sending of anti- North Korea leaflets. In response, South Korea has restarted broadcasting propaganda through loudspeakers directed at North Korea from the border.
“We made get enough experience of how much unpleasant they feel and how much effort is needed to remove the scattered wastepaper,” Kim said.Trash from a balloon sent by North Korea is seen behind police tape in Incheon, South Korea, Sunday, June 2, 2024.
