North Korea accuses South Korea of drone incursions, violating sovereignty and escalating tensions.

North Korea's Defense Ministry has accused South Korea of sending drones into its airspace to drop anti-DPRK leaflets, labeling it a violation of sovereignty. An investigation revealed the drones allegedly flew over Pyongyang at least three times in October. North Korea warned of a "merciless offensive" if such incursions recur, escalating tensions following recent provocations between the two nations. South Korea's military has not confirmed these allegations.
