Photographs shared on social media show bags attached via string to white translucent balloons carrying toilet paper, dark soil, and batteries, among other contents.
Police and military officers are seen in some of these photographs.
South Korea’s Yonhap news agency reported that “some of the fallen balloons carried what appears to be faeces judging from its dark colour and odour”.
South Korea’s military condemned the act as a “clear violation of international law”.
I legitimately can’t tell from the headlines whether North Korea stories are satire at this point.
The problem with news about North Korea is that tabloids and defectors can literally just make shit up and it will be republished uncritically by “respectable” news sources so you have no way to judge its credibility.
Or maybe it’s all true, and to get between cities, north koreans have to pull the train to the next city. Which is actually a fake city, surrounded by fake farms, attended by fake farmers. Then they steal hollywood movies and are immediately executed by anti-aircraft gun for watching western media.
Imagine how much nicer the world be if more international conflicts were fought with turd balloons.
Until they drop little boy for tests, then suddenly you got Hiroshima and Nagasaki all over again…but with shit chain reactions.
Ah, the famous Nena song, “99 Luftturds”.
My trash company didn’t pick up my trash this week, and this gives me some ideas… BRB, gotta go rent a helium tank
Do you have a rental storage place around you that offers 10 dollars a month intro pricing? You can just leave your garbage there. Pay one month, cash, and never come back.
How so?
I’m sure they have a rule against filling it with perishable food, but those are composable anyway.
Bruh. Someone had to actively put shit in a balloon.
