South Korea accuses North of disrupting plane, vessel GPS signals
South Korean military officials said flight GPS signals were disrupted by North Korea for the second day in a row, according to the Associated Press.
Kim Jung Un, the neighboring country’s president, increased hostility toward the nation last month after sending balloons by the thousand to drop trash and propaganda leaflets in cities across the South, as reported by the AP.
North Korea has also provided nearly 10,000 troops to help Russia in its war with Ukraine. Heightened tensions are raising concerns for the U.S. and South Korea as further escalation could result in global conflict.
Jung Un boasted about North Korea’s intercontinental ballistic missile developments in November, citing it as the “world’s strongest” according to the AP.
President-elect Trump spoke with South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol by phone Thursday to map out a peaceful solution to Russia and North Korea’s growing alliance.
Throughout the U.S. general election cycle, the former president promised he could end Moscow’s aggression “within 24 hours.”
