South Korea's military has shut down loudspeakers broadcasting anti-North Korean propaganda along the inter-Korean border, showcasing the new liberal government's first step to ease tensions between the war-divided rivals. South Korea resumed the loudspeaker broadcasts in June 2024, following a years-long pause in retaliation for North Korea flying trash-laden balloons toward the South in a psychological warfare campaign. Pyongyang meanwhile appears to have also suspended its own broadcasts near the border targeting South Korea, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff.
