North Korea launched several cruise missiles into the sea

North Korea has fired several cruise missiles into the sea west of the Korean Peninsula, in protest after a nuclear-armed US submarine was delivered to a South Korean port yesterday.

South Korea’s military said a second missile was launched in apparent protest at the arrival of a nuclear-armed United States submarine at a South Korean port.

On Wednesday, North Korea fired two short-range ballistic missiles from an area near its capital, Pyongyang, that traveled about 550 kilometers (341 miles) before crashing into the sea east of the Korean Peninsula.

A foreign news agency According to the report The distance between the missiles is roughly the same as that between Pyongyang and the South Korean port city of Busan, where the nuclear-armed submarine USS Kentucky is based.

The missile launch comes at a time when Seoul and Washington are strengthening defense cooperation in the face of rising tensions with North Korea, including advanced stealth jets, joint US-South Korean military exercises and new rounds of nuclear contingency planning meetings.
