N. Korea appears to be readying more missile testing: source
SEOUL, Oct. 13 (Yonhap) -- North Korea appeared to be readying to test-fire short-range missiles off its west coast on Tuesday, a day after it launched five from the east, a South Korean source said.
North Korea earlier announced a navigation ban on both coasts from Oct. 10-20, according to the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The communist state test-fired KN-02 missiles from its east coast on Monday. | | Data picture |
"There are signs that the missile launches are being prepared on the west coast," the source said, adding they could be part of a routine military exercise aimed at improving rocket capabilities.
The source did not go into specifics, but he added that three of the five missiles tested earlier this week may have fizzled, prompting speculation North Korea could test-fire more in coming days.
