North Korea Fires Intermediate-Range Missile 1,100 km During Blinken's Visit to Seoul
Jan 6, 2025, 04:11 AM
North Korea launched an intermediate-range ballistic missile into the East Sea on Monday at around noon, according to South Korea's military. The missile, fired from near Pyongyang, flew approximately 1,100 kilometers before falling outside Japan's exclusive economic zone. This marks North Korea's first missile launch of the year and the first in two months since November. The launch, which may have involved hypersonic technology, coincided with a visit by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to Seoul, where he was expected to discuss regional stability amid political turmoil in South Korea.
