South Korean police on Saturday prevented activists from launching anti-Pyongyang leaflets into North Korea, citing an agreement reached at a historic inter-Korean summit last month.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in had agreed to restore peace and reconciliation and cease all hostile acts when they met at Panmunjom on April 27.
“Hostile acts” include broadcasting through loudspeakers installed along their tense border and distributing propaganda leaflets to each other's side.
Police surrounded a small truck carrying some 5,000 leaflets, plastic balloons and gas canisters, preventing the activists from unloading them.
