North Korea claimed Saturday it had discovered the remains of at least one crashed South Korean military drone in the capital Pyongyang, releasing images of the device that some analysts confirmed was South Korean.

The nuclear-armed North recently accused Seoul of using drones to drop anti-regime propaganda leaflets on the capital.

Pyongyang's Defense Ministry spokesman said security authorities found the remains of a crashed drone during a search of the North Korean capital on Oct. 13, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported.
