North Korea suspected of restarting border psychological warfare broadcasts! Residents panicked by strange noises; South Korea urgently clarifies: Not true ZH北韓疑重啟邊境心戰廣播! 詭異怪聲居民心慌 南韓急出面闢謠 : 並非事實
Newtalk新聞 南北韓邊境地區 29 日傳出北韓疑重啟心戰廣播的消息。京畿道坡州市與軍事緩衝區(DMZ)內臺城洞(自由村)居民反映,當地時間 29 日清晨 6 時起陸續聽見北方傳來詭異的廣播聲響,整個過程持續約 4 至 5 個小時,疑似是來自北韓方面的心戰廣播。 據《韓聯社》報導,多名當地居民透露,當天清晨先是短暫傳出歌曲聲,隨後便轉為鬼哭神號及動物嚎叫等讓人感到不適的詭異噪音。坡州統一村農民表示,過去北韓廣播音量常無預警驟增,此次試播已讓飽受精神折磨陰影的邊境居民提高警覺。 對此,北韓勞動黨中央委員會總務部長金與正先前曾發表談話,針對南韓軍方的邊境行動表達不滿,並揚言北韓將在 10 月底前完成重啟對韓廣播的準備工作。報導稱,結合北韓軍方近期持續維護邊境擴音裝置的動作,此次異音被外界視為可能正式重啟噪音廣播的前兆。 相比南韓於去年 6 月停止廣播並拆除相關裝置,北韓雖跟進停播但仍保留邊境廣播裝置。 圖:翻攝自 X @Global_Mil_Info 然而,南韓官方單位則予以否認。南韓執政黨共同民主黨與在野黨國民力量黨國會聯絡人引述國家情報院說明指出,有關北韓試播心戰廣播的報導並非事實,且村民報告經核實有誤。南韓軍方及聯合參謀本部亦表示前線未接獲報告,亦尚未證實北韓方面有播音活動。外界分析指出,若該廣播聲音屬實,可能是北韓測試時故意降低輸出功率或受地形限制所致。 報導指出,南北韓擴音心戰由來已久,自 2024 年 6 月尹錫悅政府重啟對北韓廣播後,北韓曾於同年 7 月以怪異噪音反制。去年 6 月李在明就任南韓總統後,南韓主動停播並拆除設備,北韓隨後停播但保留裝置。若北韓最終於本月底正式恢復廣播,將是時隔 …

North Korea stubbornly resists Seoul's accusations! 'This high official' in the Blue House makes tough remarks... ZH北韓頑強抵抗首爾指控! 青瓦台「這大官」放狠話強硬表態....
Newtalk新聞 上月,有3名韓國軍人在南北韓非軍事區(DMZ)遭地雷炸傷。而經韓國軍方調查後,認定地雷由北韓軍方埋設,要求平壤道歉並移除地雷,惟北韓則否認相關指控。北韓最高領導人金正恩胞妹金與正更宣布,要恢復對韓國進行擴音器廣播,同時南北韓軍事分界線北方也佈滿重型裝備面對韓國。對此,韓國國家安保室長魏聖洛今(30)日強硬表態,表示對於北韓越過軍事分界線行為會嚴正應對。 魏聖洛表示,上月韓國官兵在非軍事區內、軍事分界線以南地點執行任務時,因北韓埋設的地雷爆炸而受到重傷。事故發生後,韓軍與聯合國軍司令部共同展開調查,並透過公布最終調查結果,確認北韓軍方埋設地雷的行為違反《停戰協定》,要求北韓道歉並採取負責任的措施。 此外,魏聖洛還提到,韓國已透過爆破方式,清除事故地點的北韓軍方雷區,並利用聯合國大會等場合,向國際社會說明大韓民國立場,同時致函聯合國安全理事會,持續採取外交因應措施。而對於北韓越過軍事分界線的行為,韓國正依據作戰指導方針嚴正應對。此外,也透過極音速飛彈試射等方式,檢驗並展現韓軍的應對態勢。 魏聖洛表示,為消除軍事分界線周邊緊張局勢的根本原因,也就是南北韓雙方對軍事分界線位置認知不一致的問題,韓國已多次提議舉行南北韓軍事會談。他強調,韓國政府將秉持明確原則,持續針對非軍事區地雷爆炸事件採取必要措施,同時一貫推動和平共存政策,致力實現「不必交戰的和平」。延伸閱讀:沈伯洋秒答「4年做好做滿」 沈春華:蔣萬安對同一個問題想太久被控漠視國軍陳情案 國民黨酸沈伯洋:關心國防也是包裝(影)「最強分身」出馬!石舫亘代蔣萬安掃市場順便買菜 婆媽搶握手合照海格塞斯開除第26位將軍! 五角大廈高層地震 聯參部三星中將遭無預警解職 (影) 78學生共用一針頭篩檢 還傳有愛滋! 遼寧一高中爆重大違規 家長氣炸

General Kim short on money again? Over 200 billion in cryptocurrency hacked on Binance, setting a record; North Korea identified as the culprit ZH金將軍又缺錢? 幣安2千多億加密貨幣遭駭創歷來之最 北韓遭認是兇手
Newtalk新聞 全球最大加密貨幣交易所幣安(Binance)於台北時間今(30)日凌晨4時許發生重大資安事件。據美國區塊鏈分析公司TRM Labs調查,攻擊者從幣安位於10條區塊鏈上的錢包轉走價值約63.6億美元(約新台幣2,074億元)的加密資產,創下史上最大規模加密貨幣竊盜紀錄。TRM Labs根據鏈上及鏈下情報,高度確信此次攻擊是由北韓駭客組織TraderTraitor發動。 針對有多少虛擬貨幣遭竊,TRM追蹤了幣安所屬錢包在10條區塊鏈上,若依照各項資產遭竊當下的市場價格計算,損失總額約為63.6億美元(約新台幣2,074億元)。若以目前市場價格估算,同一批遭竊資產的價值則約為62.3億美元(約新台幣2,032億元)。 對於誰是幕後指使者一事,TRM Labs根據鏈上及鏈下情報,將此次攻擊歸咎於北韓駭客組織TraderTraitor。而美國聯邦調查局(FBI)先前就認定,TraderTraitor就是去年2月造成15億美元(約新台幣489億元)損失的Bybit駭客攻擊事件幕後主使。 TRM Labs指出,此次攻擊的多項特徵,與過去涉及北韓的加密貨幣竊盜案件相似,包括Bybit駭客事件,以及今年4月發生的KelpDAO駭客事件。其共同特徵包括透過隱私協議Tornado Cash提領少量資金,為攻擊者操作的錢包提供資金;在實際竊盜發生前很長一段時間,就已開始部署攻擊;以及提前取得交易簽章,再於短時間內集中執行大量交易。 幣安於30日發布聲明表示,經他們初步調查,此次安全事件可能涉及一名 DevOps 工程師的筆記型電腦被入侵,致使攻擊者得以存取某個服務容器並提交未經授權的提現交易。 圖:Shutterstock 而幣安於今日發布聲明表示,經他們初步調查,此次安全事件可能涉及一名 DevOps 工程師的筆記型電腦被入侵,致使攻擊者得以存取某個服務容器並提交未經授權的提現交易。我們目前未發現任何錢包私鑰洩露的證據。待調查完成、事實得到全面核實後,我們將發布詳細的技術復盤報告。 幣安表示,此次事件造成的總影響估計約為63億美元。我們已與區塊鏈合作夥伴協作凍結受影響資產,目前已在鏈上凍結約30億美元。而幣安將透過SAFU基金及公司自有資金承擔全部損失,強調用戶資金是安全,而幣安也將在修復工作完成後,發布更新版的儲備金證明(Proof of Reserves)。 幣安表示,為即時防範潛在風險,已在完成安全檢查前暫停加密資產充值及提現服務,同時撤銷受影響地址的授權,並與執法機關及區塊鏈情報合作夥伴合作,追蹤遭轉移資金並設法追回。幣安強調,團隊正全天候投入調查與處置工作,務求安全、徹底解決此次資安事件,並持續與執法機關密切合作,確認涉案人士身分,依法追究其責任。延伸閱讀:幣安驚傳資安危機!近60億美元資產疑涉案 比特幣跌至6週低點、近24萬人爆倉蘇巧慧前進永和溪洲市場掃街!攤商菜頭蔥蒜送不停 民眾高喊「全家都投給你!」不只遭爆霸凌等爭議 佀廣洋涉賄選遭檢諭12萬元交保和宋楚瑜視察馬太鞍溪防洪工程 卓榮泰:打造四道堤防給鄉親雙重安全保障侯友宜出動陪掃街 李四川:今年是做事連線與選舉連線的對決
