Pyongyang [North Korea], June 2: North Korea launched more trash-carrying balloons towards South Korea after a similar campaign earlier in the week, according to the latter's military, in what Pyongyang calls retaliation for activists flying anti-North Korean leaflets across the border. South Korea's Ministry of National Defence did not immediately comment on the number of balloons or how many landed in South Korea. South Korea's Yonhap News Agency, citing anonymous military sources, said officials as of Saturday night found about 90 balloons that dropped paper and plastic trash and cigarette buts in areas in the capital, Seoul, and nearby Gyeonggi province.
