Seoul: North Korea disrupted the flights of South Korean aircraft by tampering with GPS. The South Korean Army has made this very serious allegation against North Korea. According to South Korea, this is a cyber attack carried out by Kim Jong’s army on it. South Korea said a large number of flights and ship operations were affected as North Korea tampered with GPS signals from border areas for the second consecutive day on Saturday.
Tensions between the two Koreas have increased as North Korean leader Kim Jong Un showcases his nuclear and missile programs and engages in electronic and psychological warfare. North Korea recently released thousands of balloons to drop garbage and anti-South Korea propaganda leaflets on the neighboring country. South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said North Korean activities to tamper with GPS signals were detected on Friday and Saturday around the western border city of Kaesong and the nearby city of Haeju.
Dozens of planes stopped
South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said that these activities of North Korea disrupted the operation of dozens of civilian aircraft and several ships. South Korea’s military, while warning planes and ships near western border areas, did not explain how North Korea was interfering with GPS signals or detail the extent of the interference. “We urge North Korea to immediately end its provocative actions related to GPS interference,” South Korea’s joint chiefs of staff said in a statement. We strongly warn that he will be held fully accountable for any consequences resulting from this. (AP)
