one of them flying past the border area. town of pud you before getting as far south as the north part of the capital sol. there were at least 4 other drones detected over a congo island that is an island near the border area on the west coast. and of course, the military here condemning this as a clear provocation, as it does violate south koreans, a sovereign airspace. now, other than trying to shoot down these drones throughout the afternoon, south korea also took corresponding measures. we are learning that south crew military sent manned and unmanned surveillance aircraft near the border area, if and also north of the military demarcation line and a tit for tat of sorts. to take pictures of north korea as military installations. now the drones, the north korean drone that is dead fly for several hours. some media reports

you're saying as, as long as 7 hours since being detected again at around $1030.00 this morning, passenger flights were grounded just after lunch, including at the main airport in china international airport as a safety precaution, as these drones were flying through civilian areas as you noted, south korean jets and helicopters were also dispatched to try to shoot down these north korean drowns, but according to local reports, despite some $100.00 shots being fired, they were unable to get any of the drones to fall from the sky. apparently, citing its small size of it being under 2 meters and its color of it being blue and almost are hard to see detect against the blue skies. this comes, of course, as tensions on the korean peninsula has consistent. bentley remained high,

especially for those in the military, but for south korean civilians. they don't. they haven't been concerning themselves too much with north korea and provocations. the timing of this is interesting because it does come just one week after north korea had released to a parents satellite images of 2 points in south korea in china, the port city as well as central sol. so some analysts here and sol are saying that this appears to be north korea, trying to scare regular south koreans into being concerned with their military provocation. it has come forth from sol. thanks. they update the 3 russian military personnel have been killed in the turn on the base in santa tall in the southwest. the defense ministry says that they were killed by falling
