North Korea launches ‘ballistic missile’ towards Sea of Japan

North Korea launched a missile that may be a ballistic missile today, according to Japan’s defense ministry.

A post on X said that North Korea possibly fired a missile. We will tell you as soon as we find out more information.

South Korea also said that a missile was launched towards the eastern waters of North Korea.

South Korea’s top military officials say that a missile was launched today, but they didn’t provide any additional information about how far it traveled.

The launch happened a few hours after the United States sent powerful bombers to the Korean Peninsula to show its strength against North Korea. This is something the United States does every year along with South Korea.

Kim Jong-un recently said that the US has made the area near the Korean peninsula very unstable and there is a risk of nuclear war.

According to state media, North Korea’s leader spoke on Navy Day and asked his military to always be prepared for fighting against their opponents.

Last week, the United States, South Korea, and Japan had a naval practice together to handle North Korea’s changing nuclear dangers.

At their first meeting alone, President Joe Biden, President Yoon Suk Yeol, and Prime Minister Fumio Kishida agreed to enhance their cooperation in terms of military and economic matters to counter the threats posed by China and North Korea.
