The launch came after North Korea warned that military action would be “tougher” if the US maintains its campaign to increase deterrence against allies.
North Korea fired an unidentified ballistic missile into the East Sea on Thursday, November 17. Yonhap News Agency reported this in connection with South Korea’s military.
The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff announced the launch without giving any other details.
According to him, this is the first rocket provocation in a week.
The launch came after North Korea warned there would be “tougher” military action if the United States persists in its campaign to increase deterrence on allies.
Recall that the DPRK’s previous launch took place last week, launching a ballistic missile towards the Sea of Japan.
After that, US President Joe Biden called on Chinese leader Xi Jinping to influence North Korea and warned that the States will definitely respond if the DPRK conducts new nuclear tests.
