💨 Abstract

Six Americans were detained in South Korea for attempting to send 1,600 plastic bottles filled with rice, U.S. dollars, and Bibles to North Korea by sea. They were caught on Gwanghwa Island and are being investigated for violating safety laws. This incident highlights ongoing tensions over activist efforts to send propaganda to North Korea, which has previously retaliated with trash-filled balloons.
