South Korean authorities raided the country’s spy agency on Tuesday as they investigated how a drone was flown across the border and shot down over North Korea.
Pyongyang accused Seoul of flying a drone into Kaesong earlier this year, releasing images that purported to show debris from the downed aircraft. South Korea initially denied government involvement, suggesting civilians may have been responsible.
But police said on Tuesday they were investigating three active-duty soldiers and one spy agency employee suspected of involvement in the case. Search and seizure warrants have been executed “at a total of 18 locations, including the Defense Intelligence Command and the National Intelligence Service,” authorities said in a statement. (AFP)
