  "summary": "North Korea test-fired two types of submarine-launched strategic cruise missiles into the East Sea, also known as the Sea of Japan, on Wednesday. According to the Korean Central News Agency, the tests were intended to examine the mobilized posture of underwater combat systems and served as a Navy training exercise. The agency reported that the launch demonstrated the high reliability and ability of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's war deterrents.\n\nThe test was overseen by Jang Chang-ha, director-general of the Missile Administration, Kim Jong-sil, a member of the Central Military Commission of the Workers Party of Korea, and engineers from the Navy's underwater weapon system. Both NDTV and the New Straits Times reported that the missiles were fired without any adverse impact on the security of neighboring countries. The Korea Times noted that the country's Rodong Sinmun newspaper did not report the launch.",
