N. Korean Propaganda Makes Impact in South
- Share via
SEOUL, South Korea — A family in eastern Seoul was watching television Friday night when a box lettered with the words “Terminate U.S. Imperialist Invaders” and containing 50 North Korea-made batteries smashed through the ceiling, police reported Saturday.
Police said the box apparently was part of a device sent aloft by balloon in North Korea to carry propaganda material to South Korea, where U.S. troops are stationed. Such methods are regularly used by North Korea to disseminate leaflets, especially during the winter when northerly winds increase.
