Five North Korean drones crossed the border into South Korea on Monday for the first time in five years, heightening tension between the two neighbors.
One drone traveled as far as the northern part of Seoul, South Korea’s capital, about an hour’s drive from the border, a South Korean defense official said in a briefing. The other four flew around Ganghwa Island, a CNN report said.
The South Korean military responded by firing shots at the drones, though the country’s defense ministry could not confirm if any drones were shot down.
