Raketentest: Japan alarmiert wegen nordkoreanischer Rakete
Die Tests der nordkoreanischen Diktatur sorgen erneut für Sorgen bei den Nachbarn. Japan hält den Flugkörper für eine ballistische Rakete. Südkorea spricht von einem unbekannten Geschoss.
Tokyo - According to Japanese sources, North Korea may have launched a ballistic missile, possibly of a ballistic nature, with at least one such missile being fired as reported by the Japanese news network NHK, citing the country's Defense Ministry. The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff initially claimed, based on information from the Yonhap news agency, that North Korea had fired an unidentified projectile towards the sea east of the Korean Peninsula.
Most recently, North Korea had launched several short-range ballistic missiles towards the Japanese Sea on September 12. These missile launches occurred one day after the conclusion of a five-day joint military exercise involving South Korea, the United States, and Japan. North Korea routinely tests ballistic missiles and other weapon systems. Experts believe these tests aim to enhance military capabilities and showcase strength.
