Paju, Yeoncheon, and Gimpo 'Danger Zone'...a crackdown on the spraying of leaflets against North Korea

Gyeonggi Province has set 11 cities and counties, including Paju City, Gimpo City and Yeoncheon County, as "dangerous zones" to prevent the spraying of leaflets against North Korea.

Kim Sung-joong, the first vice governor of Gyeonggi-do Province, announced measures to set up a dangerous zone at a press briefing, saying, "The inter-Korean relations are sharply strained, threatening the lives and safety of residents in the border region."

Setting up a dangerous zone is a response to North Korea's recent increase in filth balloons and North Korea's threat to infiltrate drones into Pyongyang.

In particular, the possibility of shelling cannot be ruled out if the North Korean military's general staff is caught in military movements, such as ordering a preliminary operation to be fully prepared.
