North Korea has fired seven missiles into the East Sea in the past two weeks. According to reports from Pyongyang, the series of tests has now ended. Bombardment of the South with tactical nuclear weapons was simulated.
According to North Korean state media, the most recent seven missile launches in North Korea were “tactical nuclear exercises” that were personally overseen by ruler Kim Jong Un. The tests were a response to joint military exercises by South Korea, Japan and the United States and simulated a “real war,” North Korea’s state news agency KCNA said.
KCNA reported that North Korean military units that handle tactical nuclear weapons “conducted military exercises from September 25 to October 9 to test the country’s combat deterrence and nuclear counterattack capability.” It said Kim Jong Un “directed military exercises at the base”. KCNA quoted Kim as saying, “Although the enemy keeps talking about dialogue and negotiation, we have nothing to talk about and we don’t need it.”
North Korea launched two ballistic missiles early Sunday morning, its seventh since September 25. In the wake of the 1953 Korean War, South Korea and North Korea are still officially at war, after the two countries only agreed to an armistice and failed to agree on a peace treaty.
The tests sparked international concern as one of the missiles flew over Japan. In response, Seoul, Tokyo and Washington conducted joint maneuvers and fired missiles. The United States again sent the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan to the region.
South Korea, the US and Pyongyang fear that they are preparing for a nuclear test. This is the first such test since 2017. Experts see the increase in North Korean missile tests as a possible sign of an imminent nuclear test.
