North Korea fires ballistic missile after South’s surprise test launch
Published: 31 Dec. 2022, 09:30
The Joint Chiefs of Staff announced the launch. It did not provide other details immediately.
The launch came after South Korea successfully conducted a test flight of a solid-fuel space launch vehicle the previous day as part of efforts to strengthen its space-based reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities.
On Dec. 23, the North fired two short-range ballistic missiles into the East Sea, less than a week after its launch of two medium-range ones.
