North Korea has once again fired a ballistic missile from the east coast. The news agency Reuters has given this information by quoting the South Korean army. The missile was fired hours after North Korea warned the US and its regional allies of a strong military response.

 

South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said North Korea fired an unidentified ballistic missile into the East Sea. This East Sea is also known as the Sea of ​​Japan. South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a brief statement that there was no further information on how far the weapon traveled or where it fell.

 

North Korea's foreign minister warned

Earlier on Thursday, North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son Hue warned that the recent US-South Korea-Japan summit agreement on North Korea would further escalate tensions on the Korean Peninsula.

 

The US, Japan, and South Korea issued a joint statement

Cho's statement was North Korea's first official response to President Joe Biden's trilateral summit with his South Korean and Japanese counterparts in Cambodia on Sunday. In their joint statement, the three leaders strongly condemned North Korea's recent missile tests and agreed to work together to strengthen deterrence. Biden reaffirmed the US commitment to defend South Korea and Japan with full capability, including with nuclear weapons.

 

North Korea said America will regret

Cho said the US-South Korea-Japan summit would bring the situation on the Korean Peninsula to a more unpredictable stage. At the same time, Foreign Minister Cho did not specify what steps North Korea might take but said that the US would be well aware that it was a gamble that it would surely regret.

 

Let North Korea firmly maintain its recent weapons testing activities. America and South Korea have been continuously making statements by registering protests against this.
