North Korea ballistic missile test

Hours after KCNA published a belligerent statement from its foreign minister, the North launched a short-range ballistic missile toward its east coast on Thursday. 

Four days after it launched four SRBMs, North Korea again fired a missile into the sea to its east.

Following up on a statement from its military official, North Korea launched at least more than 25 missiles and 100 artillery shells in a day.

North Korea conducted its seventh round of ballistic missile tests in two weeks, and Kim Jong Un oversaw drills by “tactical nuclear operation units.”

Two days after it launched an intermediate-range ballistic missile over Japan, North Korea fired two short-range ballistic missiles into the sea off its east coast.

North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles into the ocean off its east coast on Saturday.

While South Korea and the United States are conducting joint military drills on the east coast of the Korean Peninsula, North Korea launched ballistic missiles in the same direction.

A day before the South Korea-U.S. navy joint drills kick off, North Korea launched its first ballistic missile since June 5.

The North’s missile launch came amid a flurry of diplomatic meetings in Seoul and Tokyo. Seoul quickly followed up with its own SLBM test. 

After Pyongyang's resumed missile testing, Seoul and Washington are having difficulties finding a way to resume dialogue.

After laying the groundwork during Asia travel by the secretaries of state and defense, the administration now must respond to the first provocation from North Korea.
