Kim Yo Jong threatens to ‘destroy’ Seoul if ROK drone found in North Korea again

North Korean leader’s sister says threat stands regardless of whether drones sent by government or activists

Kim insisted that the ROK government launched or directly helped another group send a drone to drop anti-DPRK leaflets over Pyongyang on Friday night.
