South Korea’s military has sent a propaganda drone from an island far from the border, the North claims

North Korean state media said on Monday that an investigation “proved” South KoreaHis military sent a drone over Pyongyang to drop propaganda leaflets, calling it a violation of sovereignty.

The nuclear-armed North has accused Seoul of sending unmanned aerial vehicles into its airspace three times, which the South Korean military has denied.

The analysis “proved that the drone of the military gangsters of the Republic of Korea … penetrated the capital of the DPRK,” the official Korean Central News Agency reported, referring to both countries by the acronyms of their official names.

A graphic released by KCNA showed a flight path of the drone departing from South Korea’s Baengnyeong Island and landing in Pyongyang after crossing the western sea of ​​the Korean peninsula.

Baengnyeong is South Korea’s westernmost border island and closer to Pyongyang than Seoul.
