Seoul: North Korea is launching more balloons believed to be carrying trash towards the South, Seoul's military said Thursday, in the latest round of a tit-for-tat balloon war between the two Koreas.
Seoul's Joint Chiefs of Staff said the North was "launching (suspected) trash balloons aimed at the South once again", adding they were currently floating across the border.
"Citizens are advised to be cautious of falling debris. If you find any fallen balloons do not touch them and report them to the nearest military unit or police station," it added.
Seoul city authorities issued an alert to residents Thursday, saying "a suspected balloon from North Korea is confirmed to have entered the airspace of Northern Gyeonggi province. Citizens should be cautious of outside activities."
This is the eighth round of trash-carrying balloons launched by Pyongyang since late May.
