Earlier today, another ballistic missile was fired into the Sea of Japan, or East Sea, two days after a similar test in which a missile passed over areas of Japan, South Korea’s national news agency Yonhap reported, citing the national defense general staff in Seoul.
Pyongyang’s recent weapons tests are “retaliatory measures” to its recent joint military high schools and deployment in the region of assets such as a nuclear-powered US aircraft carrier, North Korea’s foreign ministry said today.
The ballistic missile launches, which have now reached six since the end of September, were “a just response by the Korean People’s Army to the joint military high schools of South Korea and the United States that are causing an escalation of military tensions on the Korean Peninsula,” a foreign ministry press release said. .
