North Korea sends balloons with trash to South for 2nd consecutive day

North Korea floated trash-carrying balloons into South Korea for a second straight day on Thursday, South Korea's military said, reports Yonhap News Agency.
"As (North Korea) has again been floating balloons since 9 a.m., we advise the public to beware of falling objects and report to nearby military units or the police when discovering a fallen balloon," the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) of South Korea said in a notice to reporters.
The move came after North Korea sent around 420 trash-carrying balloons from Wednesday night to early Thursday
Around 20 balloons were retrieved in South Korean capital Seoul and the surrounding Gyeonggi Province
Since late May, the North has launched thousands of balloons carrying trash in a tit-for-tat move against anti-Pyongyang leaflets sent by North Korean defectors and activists in South Korea. Pyongyang last launched such balloons on August 10.
In July, one of those balloons fell on the territory of South Korea's government complex, where the president's office is located.
