SEOUL, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- North Korea has been dropping propaganda leaflets into South Korea by balloon near-daily as tensions escalate between the two countries.
Pyongyang began dropping leaflets as early as Jan. 13, Yonhap News Agency reported. The helium balloons that carry them have timers that cause them to explode, scattering the leaflets. Seoul's defense ministry told SkyNews the leaflets have reached as far as the capitol.
