(Worthy News) – South Korea says it has scrambled fighter jets and attack helicopters, firing warning shots, after North Korean drones “violated” its airspace.
The country’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, a group of chiefs from each major branch of the armed services, said several unmanned North Korean drones crossed the border and were detected in the South’s territory on Monday.
It marks the first time the devices have entered South Korean airspace since 2017, when a suspected drone was found crashed in the country. [ Source: Sky News (Read More…) ]
