Leader Online Desk: The conflict of any country with its neighboring countries is permanent. Due to this, whether it is a war between the two countries or the constant tension on the border becomes a prominent part. Both countries are always trying to outwit each other. But it will raise your eyebrows to read that one country has dumped garbage in the neighboring country; but it is true. Yonhap news agency in the southeastern province of South Gyeongsang has reported that North Korea has flown garbage bags into South Korea with the help of large balloons.
Images released by South Korea show two large balloons carrying plastic bags and some damaged items, sheets of paper, pieces of plastic and 'dust' scattered on pavements and roads. According to a JCS official, the fallen balloons appear to have carried various types of garbage, including plastic bottles, batteries, shoe parts and even manure.
Government agencies are currently analyzing the balloons. These bubbles contain dirt and debris. North Korea's actions clearly violate international law. South Korea has also said that they are seriously threatening the security of our citizens. North Korea bears full responsibility for the debris ballooning. South Korea has also warned that they should stop the inhuman act immediately.
