North Korea condemned South Korean civic groups yesterday for their plan to send more anti-
Pyongyang leaflets this weekend, calling it a declaration of war.
But the activists said they will go ahead and disseminate the fliers today as scheduled.
Seven conservative groups announced that they will release balloons carrying 500,000 leaflets with
messages critical of the North Korean regime from Imjingak in Paju, northern Gyeonggi, near the
western inter-Korean border. The distribution will begin at 1 p.m. today, the groups announced.
The North, which has reacted furiously to the civic groups sending the leaflets, issued yet another
warning yesterday. Through the state-run Korean Central News Agency, Pyongyang said that insulting
the dignity of its supreme leadership with the groundless lies expressed in the leaflets amounted to a
declaration of war.
The North also added that the United States must feel ashamed that its dollar bills are being used for
propaganda. The civic groups often send dollar bills with the fliers to lure more North Koreans into
picking them up.
Earlier this month, North Korea fired at the balloons, which led to some shells landing across the
demilitarized zone on South Korean territory, prompting Seoul to return fire from Yeoncheon,
Gyeonggi.
Unification Minister Ryoo Kihl-jae said yesterday that the government does not have the power to
stop the civic groups.
