North Korean Balloon Dumps Rubbish On South Korea’s Presidential Compound

Authorities have reported that rubbish carried by a North Korean balloon has landed on South Korea’s presidential compound, marking the second such incident in recent months.

The South Korean presidential security service stated on Thursday that a balloon from across the inter-Korean border released debris onto the compound in Seoul’s Yongsan district, but no hazardous items were found.

According to South Korean newspapers Dong-A Ilbo and Chosun Ilbo, the balloon included propaganda leaflets mocking President Yoon Suk Yeol and his wife.

This incident follows a claim by Kim Yo Jong, the influential sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who stated earlier this week that authorities had removed “political motivational rubbish sent by the ROK scum,” referring to South Korea’s official name, the Republic of Korea.

“The reckless infringement upon the sovereignty of the DPRK by the ROK military gangsters is a hideous military provocation that can never be pardoned, Kim said, referring to North Korea’s official name, according to a state media report on Tuesday.

“Seoul will have to experience at firsthand so as to know properly how dangerous [of an] act it committed and how terrible and fatal the consequences it brought on itself are,” Kim said, according to a state media report on Tuesday.

Since May, Pyongyang has launched thousands of balloons filled with trash and propaganda leaflets across the border, retaliating against South Korean activists who have dropped similar leaflets into the North.

Thursday’s incident is the second occurrence of a balloon releasing debris over the South Korean presidential office, following a similar event in July.

This raises concerns about the security of important South Korean locations in the event of a North Korean attack.
