South Korean military resumed propaganda broadcasts against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) as planned in retaliation for the nuclear test, Yonhap news agency reported on Friday citing the military sources.

The anti-DPRK propaganda started to be broadcast from noon across the border toward the DPRK at 11 locations, installed with a set of large loudspeakers.

A military official was quoted as saying that the loudspeakers will be operated at random day and night for about wo to six hours a day.

The resumption came in retaliation for DPRK's claim of its first successful test of a hydrogen bomb on Wednesday.
