Photographs shared on social media show bags attached via string to white translucent balloons carrying toilet paper, dark soil, and batteries, among other contents.
Police and military officers are seen in some of these photographs.
South Korea’s Yonhap news agency reported that “some of the fallen balloons carried what appears to be faeces judging from its dark colour and odour”.
South Korea’s military condemned the act as a “clear violation of international law”.
I remember a defector on a podcast telling about how she was wondering what a trash can was in the safe house in China and how foreign concept “trash” was to her. They don’t consume anything that comes in a package and if it does it’s then repurposed for something else but definitely will not get thrown away.
I legitimately can’t tell from the headlines whether North Korea stories are satire at this point.
Bruh. Someone had to actively put shit in a balloon.
Those are probably just normal North Korean trash bags. Throwing shitty TP in the trash is very common in countries with bad plumbing.
Ah, the famous Nena song, “99 Luftturds”.
Imagine how much nicer the world be if more international conflicts were fought with turd balloons.
Until they drop little boy for tests, then suddenly you got Hiroshima and Nagasaki all over again…but with shit chain reactions.
If we aim right, we can fertilize our crops while we war.
Canada should do this to the states.
Maybe throw in a pack of pre-rolls every once in a while.
You sound like a terrible pen pal. Wanna be mine?
I’ll be your huckleberry.
