North Korea on Friday threatened a “terrible response” if it detects any more drones buzzing across the border from the South.
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung has sought to repair ties with North Korea since taking office last year, criticising his predecessor for allegedly sending drones to scatter propaganda over Pyongyang.

“I give advance warning that reoccurrence of such provocation as violating the inalienable sovereignty of the DPRK will surely provoke a terrible response,” Kim said in a statement carried by Pyongyang’s official Korea Central News Agency.
“We don’t care who the very manipulator of the drone infiltration into the airspace of the DPRK is and whether it is an individual or a civilian organisation,” she said, using the acronym for North Korea’s official name.
