North Korean state media on Monday carried a threat to shoot down balloons carrying anti-Pyongyang propaganda leaflets with "cannons or missiles."
The threat, part of a report from the DPRK’s foreign news service Urimizokkiri, also contained a reference to a previous October incident when North Korean soldiers fired small arms at balloons launched from South Korea.
