Only three days ago, the North Korean military launched two tactical guided missiles from a train.
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea fired an unknown projectile into the Sea of Japan as part of its fourth show of force this year.
On the morning of Monday, January 17, with reference to the Joint Chiefs of Staff of South Korea (JCS), the Yonhap news agency reports.
The Cabinet of Ministers of Japan believes that we are talking about the launch of a ballistic missile. Now experts are studying the range, height, speed and other characteristics of the projectile.
It is noted that the incident occurred just three days after the North Korean military launched two tactical guided missiles from railway platforms that hit a predetermined target in the Sea of Japan.
Last week, Pyongyang threatened a “strong and appropriate response” to new US sanctions against Parsec and seven individuals involved in the development of weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missiles in the DPRK.
Recall that on January 5, North Korea announced the successful testing of a hypersonic missile, which “accurately hit the target at a distance of 700 km.”
