North Korea Sends 600 Trash-Filled Balloons into South Korea
TL;DR Summary
North Korea has sent around 600 trash-filled balloons into South Korea, prompting the South Korean military to monitor and collect the debris while issuing emergency alerts. This act follows a similar campaign earlier in the week, with North Korea claiming the balloons are retaliation for anti-DPRK leaflets sent by South Korean activists. South Korea has condemned the move as "low-class" and warned of strong countermeasures.
