Abstract

South Korea has issued a warning of possible military actions in response to North Korea's continued practice of sending trash-filled balloons across the border. The most recent batch of balloons caused disruptions at South Korea's main airport for over 90 minutes. While South Korean officials have previously stated that they will respond sternly to any harm caused by the balloons, it is unusual for them to discuss retaliatory military measures. North Korea has been sending these balloons as a display of anger towards South Korea's joint military drills with the US, and tensions along the border have been increasing.
