North Korea launches trash balloons bombs

North Korea has launched 20 more trash balloons toward South Korea, in an apparent response to reports of South Korean drones flying over Pyongyang.

North Korea launched another batch of about 20 trash-laden hot air balloons toward South Korea on Saturday, part of a recent escalation in the propaganda war between the two countries.

According to South Korea's Yonhap news agency, the balloons contained household waste, such as paper and plastic, but no hazardous or explosive substances were detected.

It was the 28th balloon launch since May.

South Korea's military has warned it will take "severe measures" if North Korea oversteps certain limits in its propaganda campaign or if its actions harm the South Korean people.
