North Korea sent a new wave of trash-laden balloons toward its southern neighbor late Sunday, after Kim Jong Unβs powerful sister warned of further responses if the South keeps up its βpsychological warfare.β
The new balloons, which Seoul has previously slammed as βbase and dangerous,β come in apparent retaliation for the decision by South Korea to resume broadcasting anti-North Korean propaganda over loudspeakers in border areas.
Kimβs sister and government spokeswoman Kim Yo Jong warned the resumption of loudspeaker broadcasts was βa prelude to a very dangerous situation.β
In a statement carried by North Korean state media, Kim said South Korea would be subject to an unspecified βnew counteractionβΒ from the North if it continued with the loudspeaker broadcasts and failed to prevent activists fromΒ sending anti-North Korean propaganda leaflets over the border.
