A South Korean military drill took a terrifying turn when fighter jets accidentally dropped bombs on a civilian area near the North Korean border, injuring over a dozen people.
Disturbing footage from the village of Nogok captures the moment a bomb unexpectedly strikes the ground, erupting into a massive cloud of smoke and debris. The impact appears dangerously close to a moving vehicle, while a terrified pedestrian scrambles for safety as the dust settles.
After the explosion, videos from inside nearby homes reveal shattered glass, overturned kitchenware, and even a door forcefully blown into a living room. The aftermath paints a picture of devastation and fear among locals.
Officials from Pocheon city confirmed that four individuals sustained serious injuries requiring surgery, while 11 others suffered minor wounds and shock. According to the South Korean Air Force, the incident occurred just after 10 AM local time when two KF-16 fighter jets mistakenly released eight MK-82 general-purpose bombs due to inaccurate coordinates.
In response, all live-fire drills have been suspended as authorities launch a full-scale investigation into the mishap.
