Lee Sang-ro, a reporter for the YouTube channel 'Camera Dispatch', stated that he sent a letter to the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad to block fake ballots, suspected to be produced overseas and smuggled into the country, ahead of the upcoming local and by-elections.

Requested Mossad Director to Identify Fake Ballot Printing Facilities

Reporter Lee Sang-ro delivered his fifth official letter to Mossad Director David Barnea through the Israeli Embassy in Seoul.

In the letter, Lee claimed, "During the past election, a large number of ballots suspected of election fraud, made of a different material (e.g., 150g weight) than domestic standards, were discovered." He added, "According to analysis by printing experts, it is presumed that these were printed overseas, such as in China, and illegally brought in through airports and ports."

He further pointed out that with the candidate registration deadline for the 6.3 local elections on May 15th, there is a high possibility of fake ballots being mass-produced at printing facilities in outlying areas of Guangdong Province, China, and requested Mossad to utilize its intelligence capabilities to identify the locations of these printing facilities and their smuggling routes.

He further stated, "If China's election interference is not stopped, South Korea will become a vassal state of China, which would also result in Israel losing a strong ally in Northeast Asia." He added, "We plan to send a letter with the same intent to the US CIA in the future."

Sent Certified Mail to Commissioner of Korea Customs Service Urging Enhanced Customs Inspections at Domestic Airports and Ports

Previously, reporter Lee Sang-ro had also sent certified mail to Commissioner of Korea Customs Service Lee Myung-gu, requesting the "prevention of the smuggling of fraudulent ballots from overseas."

Through the certified mail, he identified the period from May 18th to the afternoon of June 3rd, ahead of the early voting (May 29-30) and the general election (June 3rd), as the anticipated period for concentrated smuggling of fake ballots. He respectfully urged that customs inspections be thoroughly strengthened for all goods entering domestic airports and ports during this period, especially for bundles of paper.

Reporter Lee reminded the Commissioner of Customs Service of his constitutional duty to protect fair elections by quoting Article 1 of the Constitution.

Finally, reporter Lee Sang-ro stated that he is fighting with his life on the line to expose the reality of election fraud and that he has requested a strong response from Mossad in case any incident should occur concerning his personal safety.
