North Korea warns South Korea: propaganda loudspeakers at the border nearly ready

North Korea plans to deploy loudspeakers along its border with South Korea, as announced by Kim Yo-jong, sister of leader Kim Jong-un. This move undermines recent efforts by South Korean President Lee Jae-myung to reduce tensions. Previously, both sides used loudspeakers for psychological warfare, broadcasting criticism and music from South Korea and animal sounds from the North. Tensions escalated after a defense advisor accused North Korea of placing landmines injuring South Korean soldiers. Kim Yo-jong's statement suggests potential new countermeasures, raising concerns in South Korea about the continuation of rapprochement policies.
