North Korea fires missiles, forcing South to issue air raid alert

SEOUL, 03 November 2022, (TON): Officials said “a North Korean ballistic missile landed less than 60 kilometers off South Korea’s coast, the first time an apparent test had landed near the South’s waters, leading to air raid warnings.”

South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said “the missile was one of three short-range ballistic missiles fired from the North Korean coastal area of Wonsan into the sea.”

The JCS said at least one of the missiles landed 26 kilometers south of the Northern Limit Line, a disputed inter-Korean maritime border.

The missile landed 57 kilometers from the South Korean city of Sokcho, on the east coast, and 167 kilometers from Ulleung, where air raid warnings were issued.
