North Korea releases fifth ”dirty balloon” this year... Enters Seoul - South Korean report

North Korea has been sending "filthy balloons" into South Korea again since the 24th. In an email sent to reporters from the Ministry of National Defense on the 24th, the Joint Chiefs of Staff said, "North Korea is sending what appears to be filthy balloons against the South.
"The current wind direction is northwesterly and it is moving southeasterly from the northern part of Gyeonggi Province," the agency said.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff said, "The public should be careful of falling cargo, and if they find a fallen balloon, they should not touch it but should report it to the nearest military unit or police.
The filthy balloon has even entered the airspace above Seoul. The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced, "We have confirmed that a filthy balloon from North Korea has entered the airspace above Seoul," and said, "Citizens should avoid collecting filthy balloons."
"Please be careful of falling objects, and if you find any, please do not approach and contact the military or police," the North Korean Workers' Party Vice Director Kim Yo-jong said in a safety email sent to citizens on the 21st.
At the meeting, referring to the fact that a group of North Korean defectors in South Korea had distributed leaflets in North Korea on the 20th, he said, "They did something again that we said not to reveal, so it's only natural that we'll have more work that we don't need to do," and threw out a dirty balloon.
This is the fifth time this year that North Korea has sent a dirty balloon toward South Korea. North Korea launched a total of four dirty balloons into South Korea between the 28th of last month and the 9th of this month.
On the 9th of this month, the South Korean military responded to North Korea's dropping of dirty balloons by resuming loudspeaker broadcasts, but has not operated the loudspeakers since then.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Unification released a reference document titled "Analysis of the filth scattered by North Korea" on the same day, stating that in order to prevent the exposure of the actual living conditions in North Korea,
According to the Ministry of Unification, the waste balloons contained waste paper, vinyl, scraps, and other materials of a certain size that could be called "scattered garbage."
In the case of plastic bottles, there were signs that labels and bottle caps had been removed to prevent product information from being revealed. In addition, there were products such as gloves and masks made of layered fabric, which are intended to raise awareness of the serious living conditions of North Korean residents.
In addition, a scrap of cloth from a South Korean clothing brand that has been sending clothes to North Korea since 2000 and the cover of a document idolizing Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un were found.
Discarded items are also seen.
