North Korea launched a fresh wave of “trash balloons" toward its southern neighbors Wednesday night, according to local media.

North Korea launched several ballistic missiles into the East Sea on Wednesday, South Korea's military said, the isolated regime's second launch in less than a week as tensions ramp up on the Korean Peninsula.

North Korea continued its aggressive behavior against South Korea throughout the Chuseok holidays, firing another round of short-range ballistic missiles (SRMBs) and cruise missiles and launching more trash-laden balloons across the border Wednesday.

North Korea launched more than 160 balloons carrying trash toward South Korea last night to drop dozens of garbage bundles across northwestern parts of the country, the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said Thursday.
