Against the backdrop of the US aircraft carrier, the DPRK launched a small range ballistic missile
South Korea's armed forces have condemned the launch of a rocket that violates the UN Security Council resolution. "The launch of North Korea ballistic missile is an act of provocation that threatens the peace and security of the Korean Peninsula and the international community," the South Korea headquarters said in a statement.
The Indo-Pacific Command of the United States has stated that launch is not a direct threat to the US staff or territory or allies, but emphasized the destabilizing influence of illegal nuclear weapons and North Korea missile programs. In Japan's coast, sailors were urged to be vigilant and not approach suspicious objects in the sea. The rocket fell outside the exclusive economic zone of Japan.
Against the backdrop of launching a rocket to South Korea, an American USS Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier arrived with a shock group. Pusan plans to conduct joint training with the US military. We will remind, on September 23, a aircraft carrier arrived in South Korea to demonstrate USS Ronald Reagan. Earlier in the DPRK suspected the military in sympathy for South Korea through talent shows. The authorities called it a serious violation of a discipline that resembles South Korean artists.
