"North Korea's Trash Balloons Escalate Tensions with South Korea"
North Korea's recent deployment of trash balloons over the South Korean border, in retaliation for South Korean activists sending political pamphlets and cultural items, has led South Korea to consider fully withdrawing from a 2018 military tension-easing agreement.

The suspension of the agreement could lead to more aggressive military activities and heightened risks of incidents along the border.
