North Korea has resumed provocations with trash balloons against the South for the first time in five days.


A number of so-called 'Bira' and South Korea were also found in the balloon drop,

In particular, balloon debris fell to the presidential office building in Yongsan.

I'll connect with a reporter to hear more about it.

Reporter Lee Jong-won, are you still getting reports that you found a balloon drop?

[Reporter]
Yes, let's take a look at the pictures and videos that viewers sent us.

It's around Itaewon Station in Yongsan-gu, Seoul this morning.There are so many leaflets scattered around

that they look red.

At a glance, it looks like there are about a hundred sheets.

The leaflets are full of foul language denouncing the Yoon Suk Yeol presidents and their wives.

If you look at a video taken by a viewer, it also shows the debris of balloons falling.

Three or four balloon-shaped plastic bags were tied together and fell in the wind.

All of them are trash balloon drops sent by North Korea early this morning.

In particular, some of the balloon drops were also found in the presidential office building in Yongsan.

This is the second time since July that North Korea's garbage balloons have fallen into the presidential office building.

The security agency said it found falling trash in the area of the building when a North Korean garbage balloon exploded in the air early this morning.

The safety inspection confirmed that there was no danger or contamination of the object, and it was collected, and explained that it is continuously being monitored in cooperation with the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

North Korea's balloon provocation has been five days since the 19th, and it has already been the 30th since late May this year.

At first, filth was put in and blown away, but recently, most household waste such as paper and vinyl was found.

But today, he sent a large number of leaflets criticizing President Yoon and his wife.

This is the first time North Korea has sent leaflets to the South in garbage balloons.

South Korean drones penetrated Pyongyang and sprayed propaganda leaflets against North Korea, and even released photos of the drone's debris, but it seems to be a counter-measure.

The specific number of balloons or damage that North Korea boosted overnight has not yet been counted.
