The activity is an apparent retaliation against South Korean activists for flying anti-Pyongyang propaganda leaflets across the border.
North Korea has flown hundreds of waste-carrying balloons towards South Korea in one of its most bizarre provocations against its rival in years, prompting the South’s military to mobilise chemical and explosive response teams to recover objects and debris in different parts of the country.
In a speech on Tuesday, Mr Kim described the South Korean response as a “hysterical attack formation flight and strike drill” and “direct military challenge” towards North Korea, the North’s official Korean Central News Agency said on Wednesday. Photos released by the military showed rubbish scattered across highways and roads in different parts of the country.
She said the North was merely exercising its freedom of expression, which the Seoul government has stated as a reason for its inability to stop anti-North Korean activists from flying leaflets across the border. North Korea’s aerospace technology administration said the explosion was possibly related to the reliability of a newly developed rocket engine that is fuelled by petroleum and uses liquid oxygen as an oxidiser.
