Standoff Over Leaflets, Bibles Sent Into North Korea
A standoff over information leaflets and Bibles being sent by defectors and Christian groups into North Korea has flared up again.
The South Korean government has reportedly condemned the actions, while activist groups have vowed to continue the practice.
Seoul's Ministry of Unification said in published remarks that sending leaflets targeting North Korea’s autocratic leadership increases tensions and "poses a threat to the lives and safety of border area residents of the South."
