South Korea denies provoking North Korea with recent military actions and leaflet campaigns.

South Korea's defense ministry denies it provoked North Korea ahead of martial law in December. It refutes claims that suspending a military agreement and resuming loudspeaker broadcasts were intentional provocations, stating these actions were part of a consistent policy to deter North Korean provocations. The ministry also denies planning artillery strikes in response to North Korea's trash-filled balloons and sending anti-Pyongyang leaflets.
