Pyongyang has carried another suspected missile launch, the South Korean military reported. The reclusive nation has stepped up its missile activity, already firing two “hypersonic” missiles in as many months. | |
The alleged North Korean “projectile” was launched towards the Sea of Japan, the South Korean military reported on Monday morning, without providing any details as to its type or range. | |
The reported missile test comes several days after Pyongyang claimed to have staged a drill involving two railway- born guided missiles that obliterated their intended targets in the Sea of Japan. | |
In addition to this, North Korea claimed to have already tested two “hypersonic missiles” since the start of the year, in January and in February respectively. | |
The nation’s most recent “hypersonic missile” launch last Tuesday reportedly rattled nerves in the Pentagon, which briefly thought that the missile was heading for the US and grounded a number of flights on the west coast as a precaution. | |
