SEOUL, 19 December 2022, (TON): North Korea test-fired a pair of ballistic missiles with a potential range of striking Japan on Sunday, in a possible protest of Tokyo’s adoption of a new security strategy to push for more offensive footing against North Korea and China.
The launches came two days after the North claimed to have performed a key test needed to build a more mobile, powerful intercontinental ballistic missile designed to strike the U.S. mainland.
The two missiles traveled from the country’s northwest Tongchangri area about 500 kilometers at a maximum altitude of 550 kilometers before landing in the waters between the Korean Peninsula and Japan, according to the South Korean and Japanese governments.
